#ImageOfTheMonth #SwissDataCube | Lakes #Thun (Left) and #Brienz (right) appear noticeably different due to their distinct colors, primarily caused by their different sediment and glacial influences. #Sentinel-2 #Switzerland #EO4impact #remotesensing #earthobservation

#ImageOfTheMonth #SwissDataCube | This #Sentinel-2 false-color composite shows the extension of the dramatic event that recently happened in the #Lötschental after the collapse of the Birch glacier #Switzerland: www.theguardian.com/environment/... #EO4impact

#ImageOfTheMonth #SwissDataCube | Using #Sentinel-2 and other #Environmental descriptors from #swisstopo we are able to produce a consistent 10m #LandCover map of the entire #Switzerland. This will enable tracking changes in a very detailed way. #EO4impact

Very interesting presentation from Dr. Simon Hook #NASA #JPL on existing and future thermal missions. #ECOSTRES looks particularly interesting #SBSR conference #Salvador #Bahia

After two years, back at #INPE to continue the great collaboration between the Brazil and Swiss Data Cubes on Satellite Image Time-Series #SITS

#ImageOfTheMonth #SwissDataCube | In this Sentinel-2 true color composite, you can see probably the most famous peak of Europe - the #Matterhorn located at border between #Switzerland and #Italy.

#ImageOfTheMonth #SwissDataCube | A recent study in @nature.com has shown that the pace of glacier melting is accelerating: doi.org/10.1038/s415....
The Aletsch Glacier is an icon of the Swiss Alps and its significant decrease in 40 years is a clear consequence of #ClimateChange. #EO4impact

#ImageOfTheMonth with the #SwissDataCube | Prolonged heat and dryness conditions can lead to #drought, serisously affecting lakes like the "Lac des Brenets". This lake experience important water shortages and its level is declining as seen on this #Sentinel2 false color composite. #EO4impact

With the start of the new year, I will try to publish every month a picture of #Switzerland #landscape as seen from space using the #SwissDataCube.
We start with a cloud-free mosaic of the country using all available #Sentinel2 images for 2020. #EO4impact
