Feasibility study for using stereo Pléiades images for deriving 3D forest parameters for the entire Alpine space region

Towards an Earth Observation Platform for the Greater Danube Region: Initial Developments and Scientific Experiments

Satellite Technologies for Improved Drought-Risk Assessment

Drought risk management systems are mostly restricted, because drought information is not linked to socioeconomic impacts, such as crop failure or food insecurity. SATIDA solves this problem by combining satellite-derived drought hazard information with food security assessments. These assessments are conducted by vulnerable communities in the world's most drought-prone regions via a smartphone app.

Preparing for the Initial Services of the Earth Observation Data Centre for Water Resources Monitoring

The mission of the Earth Observation Data Centre for Water Resources Monitoring (EODC- Water) GmbH, which will be founded by the consortium members of this proposal in early 2014, will be to work together with its partners from science, the public- and the private sector in order to foster the use of earth observation data in support of monitoring of global water resources.

A Cloud-Based System for High-Resolution Soil Moisture Monitoring over Austria

Soil moisture is a pivotal variable in the coupled water-, energy-, and carbon cycles, and is hence of high interest to a wide range of applications. Both public- and private organisations need soil moisture data to improve their services, yet the spatio-temporal resolution of operationally available soil moisture data has so far not met the requirements of many public-sector and commercial applications.

Flood Event Monitoring and Documentation enabled by the Austrian Sentinel Data Cube

Flooding is a recurrent phenomenon in Austria. Every year sees at least several smaller-scale flood events occurring in different parts of the territory. While the extent and duration of these events are limited, their combined impact on society and economy is significant. Unfortunately, field work to assess the flood status and its impact are time demanding and costly.
