A scatterometer, as an active microwave radar sensor, measures the return of radar waves in the form of a backscatter coefficient after reflection or scattering from Earth's surface. The …
The Himalayas is an essential component of the cryosphere due to the large extent of snow or ice cover. The mapping and monitoring of snow cover variability over the Himalayas is the …
Crop yield prediction is one of the crucial components of agriculture that plays an important role in the decision-making process for sustainable agriculture. Remote sensing provides …
Continuous observation and management of agriculture are essential to estimate crop yield and crop failure. Remote sensing is cost-effective, as well as being an efficient solution to …
The present study evaluates the potential of Ku-band Scatterometer Satellite-1 (SCATSAT-1) for quantification of spatiotemporal variability in snow cover area (SCA) over Himalayas …
Image-based fusion is a state-of-the-art process to extract vital information by combining the two or more images acquired from different satellite sensors. Recently launched (September …
In the present work, the potential of Scatterometer Satellite (SCATSAT-1) data (operated at Ku-band 13.515 GHz) is evaluated to estimate the binary Snow Cover Maps (SCMs) over a …
In the present work, the scatterometer satellite (SCATSAT-1) has been implemented and validated to provide the near-real-time estimation of snow cover area (SCA) in the Western …
Remote sensing via hyperspectral imaging delivers the crucial earth's surface information in narrow spectral bands, which may not be possible with multispectral imaging. The …
