Gamba","doi":"10.1109/EE1.2018.8385255","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/EE1.2018.8385255","url":null,"abstract":"High spatiotemporal resolution concentration of fine particulate matter (PM2.5) enables accurate and detailed air quality monitoring, especially for metropolitan cities with high levels of population density. Although ground air quality monitoring stations can provide timely and accurate observations, they are usually very sparsely distributed, and cannot provide PM2.5 concentration data with continuous spatial coverage. Instead, satellite observations, e.g., Landsat 8/Thermal Infrared Sensor (TIRS) and Terra/Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS), can both obtain data with continuous coverage. However, there is a trade-off between satellite sensors' spatial and temporal resolution. Hence, this study presents an estimation model for PM2.5 concentrations that combines these multi-source data to produce high spatiotemporal resolution concentration maps in urban area. The approach is tested on New York City, NY, USA. Specifically, we first use cloud-free MODIS thermal band images and the corresponding ground-station PM2.5 records to build a local PM2.5 prediction model. Then, we exploit a spatiotemporal image fusion technique to obtain Landsat-like thermal band image series from Landsat 8/TIRS (100 m spatial resolution) and Terra/MODIS (1 km spatial resolution) sensors. Finally, we convert the fused high spatiotemporal resolution thermal band images to PM2.5 concentration maps by the prediction model from step 1. The validation between the estimated and the real PM2.5 values shows that the detailed Landsat-like high spatial resolution PM2.5 estimations are more accurate than the original blurred MODIS one.","PeriodicalId":173047,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE International Conference on Environmental Engineering (EE)","volume":"259 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134474535","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, conventional SAR systems are limited in that a wide coverage can only be achieved at the expense of a degraded resolution. Staggered SAR overcomes this limitation by means of digital beamforming and continuous variation of the pulse repetition interval (PRI). Staggered SAR is currently being considered as the baseline acquisition mode of the Tandem-L mission, whose powerful instrument will deliver weekly high-resolution global images of our planet, thereby allowing quantification of a number of essential climate variables.","PeriodicalId":173047,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE International Conference on Environmental Engineering (EE)","volume":"32 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123934659","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In order to overcome such limitations we propose a relatively easy and low-cost device able to extend the bandwidth of a commercial 4.5 Hz geophone. The system basically consists in a operational amplifier with negative feedback, a buffer amplifier, and a numerical filter. The system has been specifically designed for the selected geophone, however, the idea can be easily applied to other similar devices. The low-cost of the system if compared to the manufactured expensive broadband sensor enables large-scale and/or high-density application with contained cost.","PeriodicalId":173047,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE International Conference on Environmental Engineering (EE)","volume":"58 3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115411765","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As a consequence the growth of the IoT impacts the requirement for renewable energy and energy consumption efficiencies. In this paper we discuss optimizing energy consumption in the IoT smart environment of a home.

The power of the BLE signal is known to be highly unstable even when measurement conditions remain unchanged and statistics on repeated measurements are required in order to have a good confidence in the obtained short-range distance estimates. This work proposes a stack of corrections based on non-parametric and robust statistics as a preprocessing step on the measured data, such that both the calibration and the range estimation processes improve their accuracy. According to experiments, robust and non-parametric statistics are able to handle effectively the severe noise involved in RSSI measurements, reaching most of the times a sub-meter precision.","PeriodicalId":173047,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE International Conference on Environmental Engineering (EE)","volume":"75 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132657305","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Specific architectures of neural networks based on multilayer perceptron were used simultaneously with various methods of complexity selection.
