Dr. Armin GruenETH Zurich, Switzerland

(Prof. em. Dr. Armin Gruen, ETH Zurich, President of the ISPRS White Elephant Club)

This presentation is usually part of a Seminar, given by ISPRS White Elephant Club Members at Conferences like ISPRS Symposia, ACRS Conferences, etc. This Seminar also includes presentations on “How to develop a research proposal” and “How to give presentations”.
The White Elephants Club is a group of previous or actual senior officers of ISPRS or persons with longstanding, very close relations to ISPRS, who have reached a level of personal and technical development which makes them comparable to white elephants (in the Asian sense).
The aims of the White Elephants Club are to continue friendship among the members, to share commemorative events of the members, to support the missions and goals of ISPRS and to communicate and encourage young generations to grow into potential “elephants” through their activity.
In this context this presentation is given.
It essentially treats two main issues: How to do research leading to a successful thesis (or a paper) and how to write it in such a way that the reader is interested and will honor your work with high marks and it will be referenced very often in the related literature, and as such contributing positively to your future professional career.

Dr. Laura DuncansonUniversity of Maryland, USA

Summary: This webinar aims to deliver the recent scientific and technological findings of the Global Ecosystems Dynamics Investigation (GEDI) mission. Outcomes of the GEDI Science Team and collaborators of the different initiatives aiming to develop empirical biomass models are also shown. Research perspectives and collaborations are also highlighted.

CV: Laura received her B.Sc. Honors in Earth Systems Sciences in 2007 from Queen’s University at Kingston, Ontario. She then moved to the University of Victoria where she received her MSc in Geography in 2009. Her master’s thesis was titled ‘Aboveground biomass estimation using spaceborne LiDAR in managed conifer forests in south central British Columbia.’ In 2010 she started her PhD at the University of Maryland working with Ralph Dubayah. She defended her dissertation thesis entitled ‘Fusing Allometric Scaling with LiDAR Remote Sensing for Improved Biomass Estimation and Ecosystem Characterization’ in 2014. From 2015 – 2017 she was a NASA Postdoctoral Fellow (NPP) at NASA Goddard working on research related to the upcoming GEDI mission and individual tree level dynamics. She is currently an assistant research professor at NASA Goddard, appointed through the department of Geographical Sciences at the University of Maryland.
As a researcher, I am focused on increasing our understanding of forest structure and dynamics. I use novel remote sensing technologies and methods to further our understanding of forest carbon stock and flux, their drivers and spatio-temporal dynamics. I have worked primarily with LiDAR remote sensing, although also have experience with Landsat, Landsat disturbance products, MODIS, and high-resolution optical datasets. I focus on developing and applying techniques that are non-site specific or ecosystem-specific, and am currently engaged on the GEDI science team to help lead the development of empirical biomass equations for GEDI. I also serve on NASA’s Carbon Monitoring System’s Science team and as a co-lead of CEOS’s Land Product Validation Biomass sub-group to work toward a consistent international protocol for global biomass product calibration and validation.
I have traveled or worked in forests in British Columbia, Yukon Territory, Ontario, California, Eastern United States, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Gabon and Peru. I am particularly interested in high relief forests and high biomass forests, as these are often the most challenging but ecologically significant / carbon rich forest ecosystems.

Dr. Behara Seshadri Daya SagarIndian Statistical Institute, India

Summary: DEM users are often unaware of the technicalities of the model’s generation, provenance, and error characteristics. This information is often not available or unfamiliar. For example, the SRTM DEM measures the electrical height of the surface as seen by the radar, not the ground or canopy top measured by other techniques. In addition, DEM analysis tools are often used without a deep understanding of the methods employed. As a case in point, the methods described in this talk were developed by specialists and require some dedication to understand and apply properly. For geoscientists, it is a challenge of the utmost importance to decipher the geometric, topologic, and morphologic relevance data concealed by DEMs, and the geoscientist cannot expect the algorithm developer approaching the analysis from a mathematical perspective to provide a solution for any DEM or geographical context. Therefore, it is imperative that geoscientists have some facility with the theory, algorithm development, and computer code generation to collaborate with and guide the specialists in their sophisticated endeavor.

CV: B.S. Daya Sagar (bsdsagar@isibang.ac.in) is a full professor at the Systems Science and Informatics Unit, Indian Statistical Institute, Bangalore Centre, India. His research interests include mathematical morphology; geographic information sciences; digital image processing; and fractals and multifractals and their applications in extraction, analyses, and modeling of geophysical patterns. He is an IEEE Geoscience and Remote Sensing Society (GRSS) Distinguished Lecturer for 2020–2022. He is a Senior Member of IEEE and the GRSS.

Summary: Dia 28/10: Introduction to Google Earth Engine with R language
It will cover basic concepts of using GEE within R, such as installation, image selection, filtering, mosaic and composition, vegetation index calculation, and downloading data to the computer. It can also be run in Python as the GEE syntax is very similar. The idea is for the participant to be able to use the systems and download data to analyze on their own computer. A practical example will be conducted regarding crop mapping using machine learning.

Dia 04/11: Deep Learning for Remote Sensing images with R language.
It will cover basic concepts of deep learning for remote sensing images, the main steps for its application will be identified, and its practical application will be demonstrated. Based on R codes made available for the participants, they will perform some processing steps on their machines and/or in the Google Colab environment. A practical example will be conducted regarding crop mapping using the U-Net architecture.

Dr. Leandro ParenteOpenGeoHub Foundation, Netherlands

Summary: This webinar will present the processing steps and the results of a trend analysis based on MODIS data. The MOD13Q1 product was aggregate by every two months, completely gapfilled and deseasonalized, thus generating a clear trend signal for the last two decades, which was analyzed by a linear regression to derive two coefficients (intercept and slope) on a pixel basis. The results are public available as Cloud Optimized GeoTIFFs(COG) and will be accessed by a hands-on demonstration using Python and R.

CV: Leandro Parente is graduated in Computer Science and doctor in Environmental Sciences, with experience in remote sensing, data science, machine learning, high performance computing and WebGIS applications. Since 2015, he has been involved in different research projects at the Image Processing and GIS Laboratory of Federal University of Goiás (LAPIG / UFG), specifically mapping and monitoring the Brazilian pasturelands (MapBiomas), and validating the PRODES Cerrado deforestation data (FIP-Cerrado). Currently, he is a post-doctoral researcher at the OpenGeoHub Foundation, harmonizing and producing several remote sensing and environmental layers at global and continental scale (Europe and Africa).
