MULTI-CHROMATIC ANALYSIS OF INSAR DATA: VALIDATION AND POTENTIAL

ABSTRACT The present paper presents the results of the application of Multi Chromatic Analysis (MCA) for height retrieval by processing both AES-1 airborne data and satellite TerraSAR-X data. In particular, a test of the robustness of the MCA technique with respect to total processed bandwidth has been performed through comparison of results from datasets with bandwidths spanning form 100 to 400 MHz. A first validation of the mentioned technique has been carried out by comparing the retrieved heights w.r.t. ground elevation from external SRTM DEM, as well as by verifying the reliability of the fringe classifications based on the integer number of phase cycles computed through MCA. Results are presented and commented by addressing potential and limitation of the technique

The new CCSDS standard for low-complexity lossless and near-lossless multispectral and hyperspectral image compression

This paper describes the emerging Issue 2 of the CCSDS-123.0-B standard for low-complexity compression of multispectral and hyperspectral imagery, focusing on its new features and capabilities. Most significantly, this new issue incorporates a closed-loop quantization scheme to provide near-lossless compression capability while still supporting lossless compression, and introduces a new entropy coding option that provides better compression of low-entropy data

La conservazione preventiva, programmata e partecipata dei beni culturali in ottica circolare. Casi studio e sfide aperte nel progetto Basilicata Heritage Smart Lab / Preventive, planned and participatory conservation of cultural heritage in a circular perspective. Case studies and open challenges in the Basilicata Heritage Smart Lab project

La conservazione preventiva e programmata (CPP) dei Beni Culturali risponde a molti dei principi dell’economia circolare, primo tra tutti l’allungamento del ciclo di vita, e può contribuire efficacemente alla definizione di nuove azioni di sviluppo e gestione sostenibile del patrimonio, dei territori e delle comunità. Sostanziandosi nella programmazione di attività di monitoraggio, manutenzione e miglioramento delle condizioni ambientali, attraverso l'efficientamento energetico e climatico degli edifici storici, la CPP è in grado di risolvere in ottica sostenibile numerose sfide, non solo di conservazione, ma anche di gestione e valorizzazione del patrimonio, fino a conseguire il riuso di strutture dismesse, diminuendo sia l’utilizzo di nuovo suolo da destinare al patrimonio costruito, sia l’utilizzo di risorse economiche legate a interventi di restauro, scollegati da una programmazione strategica di medio-lungo periodo. Questo contributo presenta in maniera integrata, interdisciplinare e sistemica, alcune sperimentazioni del progetto Basilicata Heritage Smart Lab sulla conservazione di siti rupestri e l’attivazione delle comunità territoriali nei processi di co-governance di un edificio pubblico nel sito UNESCO dei Sassi di Matera: due aspetti solo apparentemente distanti, che è necessario connettere per garantire una corretta attuazione della CPP.Preventive and planned conservation (PPC) responds to many of the principles of the circular economy, first of all the extension of the life cycle, and can effectively contribute to the definition of new sustainable development actions of the heritage, territories, and communities. By substantiating itself in the planning of monitoring, maintenance and improvement activities of environmental conditions, through the energy and climate efficiency of cultural heritage and historic buildings, the PPC is able to solve numerous challenges from a sustainable perspective, not only of conservation, but also management and valorisation of the heritage, to the point of achieving the reuse of abandoned structures, reducing both the use of new land to be allocated to the built heritage and the use of economic resources linked to restoration interventions not linked to strategic planning. This contribution presents in an integrated, interdisciplinary, and systemic way, some experiments of the Basilicata Heritage Smart Lab project on the conservation of rock sites and the activation of communities in the co-governance processes of a public building in the UNESCO site of the Sassi di Matera: two aspects that are only apparently distant, which must be connected to ensure correct implementation of the CPP
