Softwares & Tools
Incubating SEC
Theia Scientific Expertise Center ‘Changes and Health of Temperate Forests’ brings together engineers, researchers and stakeholders from the forestry sector, in order to develop and implement methods and tools based on remote sensing data to improve silvicultural and sylvo-sanitary monitoring and the sustainable management of temperate forests, in a context where the pressure factors on these ecosystems are increasingly more numerous in France, in Europe, and throughout the world.
PhD & PostDoc
CNES is offering a PhD grant for a project aiming to improve knowledge of human population dynamics in rural areas through the recognition of landscape indicators derived from high-resolution image processing.
Publications
The SCO facilitators discuss the Space Climate Observatory project, through which several THEIA SECs and RANs projects have been labelled.
Products
An automated soil mapping system for Reunion Island, based on the Moringa chain, using Spot6/7 or Pleiades images.
Agenda
Theia organized two thematic workshops in October, focusing on applied products for the monitoring of Forests and Water Quality.
