Actual evapotranspiration (ETact) is an essential component of the water balance and its determination for large areas is difficult on regional scale and can be explored within an innovation laboratory. The use of remote sensing data to determine ETact is particularly suitable to provide area based indicators for the evaluation of the efficiency and productivity of irrigation systems. Seasonal analysis of ETact is hampered by either spatial (MODIS) or temporal (Landsat) resolution. In order to provide a high-resolution (temporal and spatial) and dense remote sensing dataset Landsat and MODIS data will be fussed using the ESTARFM algorithm.
Spatial Earth Observation R packages by our EAGLEs
Our EAGLE students that took and passed our Introduction to spatial programming course had to submit an R package that applies spatial methods for a variety of Earth Observation data. We are very proud to show the huge diversity of very interesting and useful R...
