Previous and Current Research

  The correspondence between space and time, associating living spaces and risks, their scales and assessment, specific durations is being called into question by the increasing level of natural resources consumption and surroundings contamination. The key purposes of our researches are prevention of future calamities, reactivity, emergency management, and finally – decision making and landscape planning implementation.

The basements for risk assessment, land cover and biodiversity degradation, deforestation are methods, stages, and GIS facility that includes: reliable data gathering (optical or multispectral types of remotely sensed data for emergency situation monitoring), collection and visualization in different bands combinations, and analysis by:

ü NASA Giovanni platform and different types of data processing such as Time Overage Map, correlation, time series, etc.;

ü EO Browser and exact satellite images (Sentinel, Landsat) with custom script visualization for such hazards assessment as volcano eruptions with difficult weather conditions, wildfire, floods and droughts, algae bloom, bark beetles invasion, oil spills, gases and pollutants concentration, temperature bands and NDVI visualization, etc.;

ü Google Earth Engine for time period analysis and focusing on surface water changes, climatic changes, forest loss, and land degradation, which leads to a reduction in biodiversity and land productivity, annual deforestation rates increasement and helps to identify forest-loss hotspot areas;

ü QGIS extensions for thematic data processing and advanced spatial analysis: Remote sensing change detection, Visualization in different bands combinations, Histogram building and enhancement, trend estimation; Satellite image time series and timelapse building; Normalized indices (NDVI, NDMI, NDWI, Burn Area Index, NBR, mNDII, FMI) calculation; 3D model visualization; Classifications and division into corresponding classes; Thematic processing; Digital maps building; Environmental troubleshooting and Reports.

Its results allow us to confront ephemeral and permanent, temporal and timeless, unique and repetition phenomenon, their rapidity and slowness, mobility and immobility, revolution and stagnation, stability and instability, spatial and temporal scales, etc.

  

Future Projects and Goals

In the nearest future we intend to continue the aforementioned lines of research as well as start new projects including:

  • the dynamics of land cover change detection and estimation,

  • the risks scales measurement and assessment,

  • land cover changes and land degradation,

  • a reduction in biodiversity and land productivity,

  • decision making and landscape planning implementation

by employing the combination of geospatial technologies (NASA Giovanni platform, EO Browser and exact satellite images, Google Earth Engine, QGIS and its extensions).
