Crowdsourcing geographic information for disaster response: a research frontier

Michael F. Goodchild, J. Alan Glennon · 15 Apr 2010

Geographic data and tools are essential in all aspects of emergency management: preparedness, response, recovery, and mitigation. Geographic information created by amateur citizens, often known as volunteered geographic information, has recently provided an interesting alternative to traditional authoritative information from mapping agencies and corporations, and several recent papers have provided the beginnings of a literature…

A survey of remote sensing-based aboveground biomass estimation methods in forest ecosystems

Dengsheng Lu, Qi Chen, Guangxing Wang et al. · 21 Nov 2014

Remote sensing-based methods of aboveground biomass (AGB) estimation in forest ecosystems have gained increased attention, and substantial research has been conducted in the past three decades. This paper provides a survey of current biomass estimation methods using remote sensing data and discusses four critical issues – collection of field-based biomass reference data, extraction and selection…

Global, 30-m resolution continuous fields of tree cover: Landsat-based rescaling of MODIS vegetation continuous fields with lidar-based estimates of error

Joe Sexton, Xiao‐Peng Song, Min Feng et al. · 21 Mar 2013

Abstract We developed a global, 30-m resolution dataset of percent tree cover by rescaling the 250-m MOderate-resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) Vegetation Continuous Fields (VCF) Tree Cover layer using circa- 2000 and 2005 Landsat images, incorporating the MODIS Cropland Layer to improve accuracy in agricultural areas. Resulting Landsat-based estimates maintained consistency with the MODIS VCF in…

Big Data and cloud computing: innovation opportunities and challenges

Chaowei Yang, Qunying Huang, Zhenlong Li et al. · 3 Nov 2016

Big Data has emerged in the past few years as a new paradigm providing abundant data and opportunities to improve and/or enable research and decision-support applications with unprecedented value for digital earth applications including business, sciences and engineering. At the same time, Big Data presents challenges for digital earth to store, transport, process, mine and…

A long-term Global LAnd Surface Satellite (GLASS) data-set for environmental studies

Shunlin Liang, Xiang Zhao, Suhong Liu et al. · 28 May 2013

Recently, five Global LAnd Surface Satellite (GLASS) products have been released: leaf area index (LAI), shortwave broadband albedo, longwave broadband emissivity, incident short radiation, and photosynthetically active radiation (PAR). The first three products cover the years 1982–2012 (LAI) and 1981–2010 (albedo and emissivity) at 1–5 km and 8-day resolutions, and the last two radiation products…
