SHIP Monitoring


Mission

“Developing an advanced capability in remote sensing to meet the real-world problems of ship detection and monitoring issues.”

                                                                        SHIP = DETECTING + MONITORING

Research Activities

We’re interested in building a complete solution for ship detection and monitoring system using multiple data sources. Currently topics including:

  • Ship detection using high resolution optical image
  • Ship detection using SAR image
  • Ship detection using VIIRS Light Night products
  • Multi-modal ship activities analysis using multiple data source: optical, SAR, VIIRS satellite image and AIS, LRIT data
  • Near real-time ship monitoring system based on cloud computing (in collaboration with SDI team)

SPOT 5 Optical

Sentinel-1 SAR

VIIRS Night Light
