Flood incidents can massively damage and disrupt a city economic or governing core. However, flood risk can be mitigated through event planning and city-wide preparation to reduce damage. For, governments, firms, and civilians to make such preparations, flood susceptibility predictions are required. To predict flood susceptibility nine environmental related factors have been identified. They ar…
Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning (ML), and Deep Learning (DL) are revolutionizing hydrology, driving significant advancements in water resource management, modeling, and prediction. This review synthesizes cutting-edge developments, methodologies, and applications of AI-ML-DL across key hydrological processes. By critically evaluating these techniques against traditional models, w…
Inland water bodies play a vital role at all scales in the terrestrial water balance and Earth’s climate variability. Thus, an inventory of inland waters is crucially important for hydrologic and ecological studies and management. Therefore, the main aim of this study was to develop a deep learning-based method for inventorying and mapping inland water bodies using the RGB band of high-resolu…
Since the advent of modern computing, geochemists have increasingly relied on computers to garner efficiencies in calculations, data analysis, and data presentation. Entirely new fields, such as Monte Carlo-based simulation and geochemical modeling, have developed under this paradigm. With continued growth in computing power, machine learning has become an increasingly popular tool in aqueous g…
A numerical technique is applied to solve a biharmonic equation problem of a steady-state seepage flow of water through a thin layer of soil, under an impermeable dam. Due to the existence of a point boundary singularity and particular boundary conditions in the problem of the present study, the biharmonic equation is selected to be the governing equation. The potential function of the problem …
The progressing industrialization of oceans mandates reliable, accurate and automatable subsea survey methods. Close-range photogrammetry is a promising discipline, which is frequently applied by archaeologists, fish-farmers, and the offshore energy industry. This paper presents a robust approach for the reliable detection and identification of photogrammetric markers in subsea images. The prop…
CNES is currently carrying out a Phase A study to assess the feasibility of a future hyperspectral imaging sensor (10 m spatial resolution) combined with a panchromatic camera (2.5 m spatial resolution). This mission focuses on both high spatial and spectral resolution requirements, as inherited from previous French studies such as HYPEX, HYPXIM, and BIODIVERSITY. To meet user requirements, cos…
Among photogrammetric products, orthophotos are probably the most versatile and widely used in many fields of application. In the last years, coupled with the spread of semi-automated survey and processing approaches based on photogrammetry, orthophotos have become almost a standard for monitoring the underwater environment. If on land the definition of the reference coordinate system and proje…
Satellite remote sensing plays an important role in mapping the location and extent of surface water. A variety of approaches are available for mapping surface water, but deep learning approaches are not commonplace as they are ‘data hungry’ and require large amounts of computational resources. However, with the availability of various satellite sensors and rapid development in cloud comput…
