CosmiQ’s Jake Shermeyer and Daniel Hogan are joined by Capella Space’s Jason Brown and IEEE Geoscience and Remote Sensing’s (GRSS) Ronny Hänsch to once again discuss the SpaceNet 6 Dataset and post-challenge experiments. Learn more about data fusion and deep learning approaches that work to blend synthetic aperture radar (SAR) and optical imagery. Additionally, the podcast also explores the value of frequent SAR revisits that can be beneficial for foundational mapping applications. Finally, the group discusses CosmiQ’s new addition to the Solaris python package: a multi-modal pre-processing library and a new API called ‘PipeSegment’ for seamlessly stringing together different operations.
