ECHOSAT: Estimating Canopy Height Over Space And Time
Jan Pauls, Karsten Schrödter, Sven Ligensa +7
Forest monitoring is critical for climate change mitigation. However, existing global tree height maps provide only static snapshots and do not capture temporal forest dynamics, wh…
DUNIA: Pixel-Sized Embeddings via Cross-Modal Alignment for Earth Observation Applications
Ibrahim Fayad, Max Zimmer, Martin Schwartz +6
Significant efforts have been directed towards adapting self-supervised multimodal learning for Earth observation applications. However, most current methods produce coarse patch-s…
High Resolution Tree Height Mapping of the Amazon Forest using Planet NICFI Images and LiDAR-Informed U-Net Model
Fabien H Wagner, Ricardo Dalagnol, Griffin Carter +19
Tree canopy height is one of the most important indicators of forest biomass, productivity, and ecosystem structure, but it is challenging to measure accurately from the ground and…
Capturing Temporal Dynamics in Large-Scale Canopy Tree Height Estimation
Jan Pauls, Max Zimmer, Berkant Turan +4
With the rise in global greenhouse gas emissions, accurate large-scale tree canopy height maps are essential for understanding forest structure, estimating above-ground biomass, an…
