1. 1. Usability of Sentinel-1 C-band VV and VH SAR data for the detection of flooded oil palm

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

   Författare :Sarah Lee Sienaert; [2023]
   Nyckelord :Geography; GIS; Sentinel-1; SAR; C-band; VV; VH; Oil Palm; Flood; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Sammanfattning : Flooding in oil palm plantations in Southeast Asia is a common problem. The oil palm’s habitable range is restricted to lowland equatorial areas, and the high rainfall and degraded landscapes associated with oil palm cultivation leaves oil palm prone to flooding. LÄS MER

3. 2. Evaluation of a change detection approach to map global flood extents using Sentinel-1

   Master-uppsats, KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

   Författare :Axel Risling; [2022]
   Nyckelord :Flood mapping; global flood models; synthetic aperture radar; cloud-computing; change detection; Översvämningskartering; globala översvämningsmodeller; syntetisk aperturradar; molntjänster; förändringsdetektering;

   Sammanfattning : Floods are the most frequent disaster in the world and flood exposure is increasing globally. Flood mapping of past events can be a useful aid in not only disaster risk management, but also in evaluating and validating global flood models (GFMs) which are being used to assess and predict these floods.

4. 3. Analysis of Learning from IncidentsProcesses in Swedish and DutchHealthcare Systems : A Mixed Methods Study for Cross-Border Learning

   Master-uppsats, KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)

   Författare :Sven van Wincoop; [2021]
   Nyckelord :Learning from incidents in healthcare; patient safety; incidents; sentinel events; legal requirements; healthcare inspectorates; safety management systems; Lärande från incidenter i sjukvården; patientsäkerhet; incidenter; lex Maria; lagstiftning; hälso-och sjukvårdsinspektioner; säkerhetsledningssystem;

   Sammanfattning : Many healthcare organisations face repetitive incidents because organisations tend to fail to learn from the past. Learning from incidents (LFI) in healthcare is a process through which healthcare professionals and the organisation as a whole seek to understand adverse events that have taken place. LÄS MER

5. 4. Analysing the vegetation condition during the 2017 and 2018 growing seasons using indices derived from Sentinel-2 data : a case study over southern Sweden

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

   Författare :Camilla Persson; [2019]
   Nyckelord :Physical Geography and Ecosystem analysis; remote sensing; vegetation indices; drought; Geomatics; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Sammanfattning : The summer of 2017 was climatically close to normal in southern Sweden, whereas the following summer was unusually warm and dry. These two years therefore make an interesting case study for investigating the impact of severe drought on vegetation, particularly when considering that climate change is predicted to lead to an increased frequency of drought events in the study area.

7. 5. Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems for Flood Risk Mapping and Near Real-time Flooding Extent Assessment in the Greater Accra Metropolitan Area

   Master-uppsats, KTH/Geoinformatik

   Författare :Priscilla Adjei-Darko; [2017]
   Nyckelord :Natural disasters; Floods; Remote sensing; Geographic information system;

   Sammanfattning : Disasters, whether natural or man-made have become an issue of mounting concern all over the world. Natural disasters such as floods, earthquakes, landslides, cyclones, tsunamis and volcanic eruptions are yearly phenomena that have devastating effect on infrastructure and property and in most cases, results in the loss of human life.
