No Image Pair required! Converting To and From Optical and SAR Images With Unsupervised Learning

In this article we use a yet-to-be released data set to convert SAR images into optical images, and vise-versa by using unsupervised learning that doesn't require image pairs.

Tellus

Using InSAR to Examine Mountains On Tellus [Code Included]

In this article, we will be implementing InSAR from scratch to examine subsidence. This time, we will be looking at irregular surfaces such as mountains.

New release

TelluSAR is finally here! Thorough explanation of how to use the official analysis tool”TelluSAR (Teru-sa)” API!

TelluSAR, the official tool of Tellus Market has been released. It is a tool that uses satellite images from two different times to show ground surface subsidence and uplift on Earth. This article will explain how to use the tool, focusing especially on the API version.

[How to Use Tellus from Scratch] Using Pseudo Data From for ALOS-3, Planned Launch in 2021 (Tellus OS/Development Environment)

In this article we will be introducing ALOS-3 pseudo data gathered on Tellus OS and how to use API on the Tellus development environment.

Case studies

Automatic Detection of Parking-Lot Space With Satellite Data Challenges and Points of Improvement for the Joint Project by Sakura Internet, akippa, and Ridge-i

During a talk session on August 4, it was announced that Sakura Internet, akippa, and Ridge-i are working together to develop an algorithm that uses satellite data to find space that can be rented out for parking cars, so we decided to talk with them about the challenges they face whilst developing this service, and the success they have made using Sharp's super-resolution technology.

Introduction

Structural Classifications Using SAR Polarimetry (Polarimetric Decomposition)

In today's article, we will be testing out whether or not you can use polarimetric decomposition to differentiate between natural and man-made objects.

Introduction

Do Smaller Antenna Really Correlate With Higher Resolution? Thorough Examination of One of SAR’s Mysteries Without Using any Formulas!

This time, we are speaking with a broad group of people who are interested in SAR images, including an engineer who processes them, to a business developer, obsessed with the SAR industry, to learn what determines the resolution of SAR images from top to bottom.
