  1. 1. Land cover classification using machine-learning techniques applied to fused multi-modal satellite imagery and time series data

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Författare :Anastasia Sarelli; [2024]
    Nyckelord :Geography; GIS; Land Cover Classification; Landsat; Machine Learning; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Land cover classification is one of the most studied topics in the field of remote sensing, involving the use of data from satellite sensors to analyze and categorize different land surface types. There are numerous satellite products available, each offering different spatial, spectral, and temporal resolutions. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Shifting focus from yields to food supply : an evaluation of the ‘number of people fed per hectare’ indicator at farm and national level

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Department of Molecular Sciences

    Författare :Ida Ekqvist; [2024]
    Nyckelord :Land use efficiency; Sustainability indicators; Agricultural productivity; Food production;

    Sammanfattning : The challenge of feeding a growing global population while reducing the pressure on climate and ecosystems has gained much attention in research over the last decades. A crucial yet often overlooked aspect in research addressing this complex challenge is the efficiency of food production in meeting nutritional needs within the constraints of global cropland resources.
