Enhancing dimensionality in remote sensing images
Remote sensing relies on diverse imaging modalities to capture critical information about the Earth’s surface. These modalities include panchromatic images, which are single-band grayscale representations; multispectral images, capturing a limited number of spectral bands; and hyperspectral images, …

Remote sensing of Jupiter's magnetospheric dynamics
This thesis presents and examines evidence of Jupiter’s magnetospheric dynamics, pri- marily using Hubble Space Telescope images of the planet’s ultraviolet aurora. The first two studies discuss the radial transport of hot plasma injections from reconnection return flow. The auroral evidence for a …

Applications of remote sensing to transportation
Remote sensing is defined as the science of deriving information about an object from measurements made at a distance. In other words, collecting data about an object without making actual contact. In transportation, the objects could be but are not limited to vehicles, roads, bridges, land use, …
