Special Issue of the International Journal of GeoInformation (IJGI)
Gloria Bordogna and Cristiano Fugazza of IREA-CNR announce the call of the Special Issue "Artificial Intelligence for Multisource Geospatial Information" of the International Journal of GeoInformation (IJGI), an international open-access peer-reviewed journal published by MDPI. The Special Issue is devoted to collecting original research contributions focused on the definition and application of Artificial Intelligence methods for acquisition, filtering, management, analysis, discovery, and visualization of geospatial information from multiple sources, i.e., geospatial big data. Key applications are Earth observation for territorial…

Cause-effect relationships between magma and earthquakes during the Etna lateral eruption of December 2018 revealed
The rise of deep magma could be the cause of the seismic swarm that accompanied the 24-27 December 2018 lateral eruption of Mount Etna; this crisis culminated on 26 December with a strong earthquake (ML 4.8) which provoked significant damage in the southeastern region of the volcano. The relationships between magma intrusion and earthquakes are described in a study conducted by Cnr and Ingv, in collaboration with Dpc, published on the international review Geophysical Research Letters. What produced the recent…

A new operational service for monitoring deformations in active volcanoes
Researchers from the Institute of Electromagnetic Sensing of the Environment (IREA) of the National Research Council (CNR) present in Vienna a new operational service developed for monitoring deformations in active volcanoes Monitoring crustal deformation in active volcanic areas could not be an easy task. Space-borne remote sensing can make the difference with respect to in-situ techniques, due to its capability to provide dense measurements at large spatial scale and at relatively low cost. These results will be presented on April 9th during a…

IREA chooses ONDA for large scale InSAR data processing
IREA, the Institute for Electromagnetic Sensing of the Environment of the National Research Council (CNR) of Italy, has selected ONDA, through a public invitation to tender open to the DIAS platforms, to provide cloud resources for processing Sentinel-1 data. IREA has already been using the ONDA platform as an early adopter for the development of surface deformation products implementing interferometric SAR (InSAR) techniques. “We are very pleased to continue our collaboration with ONDA,” said Riccardo Lanari, the IREA director. “We…
