Description:
Title: Behaviour Analytics from Multi Earth Observation Satellite Data. The project aims to generate higher-level fusion results that characterize the behaviours of objects. This represents information that is of high value to users. These results are derived from object-level data using machine learning technologies and by fully exploiting the available very large and diverse EO data archives. These very large datasets also present special challenges including storage, access and processing speed, data representation, and fusion methodology that is this project will address.
