Improving Knowledge Discovery from Synthetic Aperture Radar Images Using the Linked Open Data Cloud and Sextant
2014
In the last few years, thanks to projects like TELEIOS, the
linked open data cloud has been rapidly populated with
geospatial data some of it describing Earth Observation
products (e.g., CORINE Land Cover, Urban Atlas). The
abundance of this data can prove very useful to the new missions (e.g., Sentinels) as a means to increase the usability of the millions of images and EO products that are expected to be produced by these missions. In this paper, we explain the relevant opportunities by demonstrating how the process of knowledge discovery from TerraSAR-X images can be improved using linked open data and Sextant, a tool for browsing and exploration of linked geospatial data, as well as the creation of thematic maps.
