IGARSS 17

Posted on by

I just came back from IGARSS 17 which took place at Fort Worth, Texas, USA. I did two oral presentations on algorithms dedicated to Water detection in SWOT images:

  • The first one is dedicated to the detection of large water bodies and uses two Markov Random Fields iteratively: the first one do the actual classification, while the second ones estimates the parameters of the class distributions.
  • The other algorithm detects thin water surfaces (such as rivers). It combines a pixel-based detector (which detects parts of the river network) and a higher-level step connecting detected segments.

More information can be found in the proceedings posted in the publication page.

Demo – Water detection on SWOT images

Posted on by

Last week, I participated at the “Journée Futur & Ruptures” organized by the fondation which finances half of my PhD (the other half being financed by the CNES).

This year, I was asked to prepare a demo. I did some kind of an interactive class that leads to the model I have been working on in the past months. The goal is to detect water in SWOT images.
