A better organized European contribution will have even bigger influence in informed decision making.

Seeing sub-pixel cars (and planes) in the brand new Sentinel 2 Earth Observation Satellite images!

19 de October 2015Joan Masó

A new Earth Observation satellite with 10 meter resolution able to see elements that were not visible in equivalent satellites of the same kind. In moving elements, the information of the three pixels that form the three channels that form color images (red, green and blue) are seen separated and objects become visible even if are smaller than a single pixel. This could allow for opening new Research lines in the field of mobility and road transport.
