Abstract

Air project studies image processing for dynamic remote sensed data.

Applications involve natural evolutive phenomena characterization and environmental evolution.

We are particularly interested in the following topics :

• What mathematical formulations are relevant to a proper modeling of natural structures and their evolution? What physical information of the underlying phenomena may be used for image processing?
• How include qualitative results in numerical modeling and evolution?
• Is it possible to view image processing as a pre-processing step for numerical modeling : structure's localization, parameters identification ...
• How specify the development of environmental oriented database systems including image processing and visualization?

Presently, we are mainly concerned with two types of research works :

• The modeling of natural structures obtained from Ground-Sea-Earth remote sensing, and
• The temporal evolution of natural phenomena.
