Human activities also led to coastal land loss and reduced sediment supply. Satellite-based technologies such as Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) and Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) are used to monitor subsidence. Louisiana has about 130 continuously operating reference stations (CORS) monitoring subsidence statewide. GNSS provides accurate point measurements but limited spatial coverage. InSAR, however, detects ground deformation over large areas using satellite-based radar imagery. In response to this advantage, we employed Sentinel-1 SAR images from 2017 to 2021 to estimate the vertical displacement in East Baton Rouge (EBR) Parish. Significant displacement is found in urban and industrial areas, particularly in high- and medium-density residential areas. The significant subsidence area is between Denham Spring and Baton Rouge faults, where residential areas experience displacement of -0.7 to -1 cm/year. The displacement variation in land use indicates significant annual subsidence in some buildings and infrastructure. Three strategic facilities in Baton Rouge Downtown experienced displacement, with -6.1 mm/yr in Downtown, -2.99 mm/yr at Horace Wilkinson Bridge, and -4.94 mm/yr at central railway station. In addition, machine learning is employed to estimate the vertical displacement in the study area. The K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN) model provides a comprehensive understanding of subsidence estimation among the GBR (Gradient Boosting Regression), RFR (Random Forest Regression), and KNN models. Machine learning models revealed that proximity to fault lines and precipitation are the most influential factors in displacement.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":48539,"journal":{"name":"Egyptian Journal of Remote Sensing and Space Sciences","volume":"27 2","pages":"Pages 204-215"},"PeriodicalIF":6.4,"publicationDate":"2024-03-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1110982324000206/pdfft?md5=91c12c68bd62cf089fd1ea755786956f&pid=1-s2.0-S1110982324000206-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140062540","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The lightweight MobileNet v2 is used as the backbone network to solve the time-consuming problem of traditional Xception backbone network. The deep and shallow features are enhanced by introducing an attention mechanism to further improve the accuracy of village extraction. The deep transitive transfer learning strategy is used to solve the problems of wrong extraction and fragmentation of extracted villages caused by insufficient sample size in large-scale extraction, and realize the effective extraction of large-scale remote sensing image villages. First, pre-train the lightweight Deeplab v3 + network with the SBD dataset to obtain the SBD pre-training weights. Then, Sentinel-2 dataset and Landsat-8 dataset were used to further train the lightweight Deeplab v3 + network successively with the SBD pre-trained weights. Then the trained proposed the lightweight Deeplab v3 + network was used to extract village from large-scale RS images. The experimental results show that the algorithm in this paper can reduce the training time. The accuracy indicators <em>OA</em> is 98.40 %, the <em>Kappa</em> reaches 0.8641, are all higher than the comparison methods. In the transferability experiment of the verification model, the <em>OA</em> of the proposed algorithm is above 98 %, the <em>Kappa</em> is above 0.83. It shows that the proposed algorithm is transferable. The proposed algorithm is applied to the Liaoning Province which village scene is complex for experiment.

Second, a hybrid CNN-XGB model (90.8 % accuracy) predicted the AGR and non-AGR classes as part of binary classification and generated an AGR potential zone map. Moreover, the contributing factors were analyzed deeply for the AGR site selection to understand the intercorrelation, importance, and prediction interaction. Using both approaches, a comparative assessment was conducted in the eastern, central, and western parts of Sharjah. The AGR zone based on the CNN-XGB model achieved a precision of (0.8168), recall (0.7873), and F1-score (0.8018). The critical contributing factors for AGR mapping were found to be geology (20%), geomorphology (15%), rainfall (10%), and groundwater level (10%).

Here, based on Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) observations, in-situ meteorological files (GMET), ephemeris products, ERA5 data, and weather station data, the relationship between PWV and rainstorm from July 1st to 30th was studied. The results show that GMET and ERA5 in July 2021 have high consistency in some stations, with a root mean square error (RMSE) for temperature below 1.6 °C, for pressure below 0.5 hPa, and for relative humidity below 9 %. During the week before the heavy rainstorm, the temperature dropped remarkably and the temperature difference decreased, while the relative humidity increased and the relative humidity difference decreased. Compared with ERA5 PWV, the RMSE of GNSS PWV retrieved using real-time ephemeris is 3.238 mm.

We also observed a clear correlation between PWV and the rainstorm, both temporally and spatially.

These studies have revealed alarming erosion rates, with reports indicating that nearly ten meters are lost annually. The use of high-resolution remotely sensed data can be a consistent support in regions where physical or economic obstacles interfere with collecting in situ information. In particular, the use of continuous all-weather SAR data may facilitate the evaluation of erosion and sedimentation phenomena in coastal areas. In this paper, we apply SAR data over a time period between 2017 and 2021. Sentinel-1 data are pre-processed using the Google Earth Engine platform, and a dedicated algorithm is then applied to identify and quantify erosion and sedimentation processes. Optical images are used as a reference for detecting the location of two areas where consistent sedimentation and erosion phenomena occurred in the considered four years. The results demonstrate that SAR backscattering variations over time offer a reliable method for monitoring coastal changes. This approach enables the identification of the type of phenomena occurring - sedimentation or erosion -, and allows for the quantification of their intensity and dimensions over time.

Accurate monitoring and mapping of land disturbances resulting from oil exploration plays a crucial role in conducting comprehensive environmental assessments and facilitating effective land reclamation initiatives. However, prevailing deep learning methodologies in the realm of oil and gas exploration primarily focus on oil spill detection, neglecting the critical aspect of land disturbances resulting from oil exploration, thus overlooking the impact on land. Furthermore, given that the well sites are scattered and relatively diminutive compared to other land covers, their detection poses substantial difficulties. This paper proposes an automatic error-correcting (AEC) algorithm to address deficiencies in ground truth data quality. This AEC method was integrated into the deep-learning framework for land disturbance extraction, specifically tailored for land disturbances analysis associated with oil exploration. The efficacy of our method was validated on a dataset collected in Alberta covering an area of oil sand mining sites. The application of the AEC algorithm significantly enhanced the accuracy of land disturbance analysis, thereby contributing to a more effective hydrocarbon exploration impact analysis and facilitating the timely planning by the Alberta government. The results demonstrate notable improvements in both average pixel accuracy (AA) and mean intersection over union (mIoU), ranging from 8.3% to 15.4% and 0.5% to 5.8%, respectively.

The application of colour composites using GeoEye-1 images resulted in the delineation of gossans (real target) and ferruginous sandstones (false targets) having the same colour tone in the study area.
