Research topics
Image Analysis and Pattern Recognition
- Background:
- Our scope:
- Surface targets: All teluric bodies of the Solar System.
Impact craters
- Background: Planetary craters are formed by the impact of a meteoroid with a teluric surface. Their counting is the basis for chonostratigraphic studies and their degradation status an important tool to several studies, namely to analyze past climates.
- Our scope: To develop robust automated methods that can identify these structures at large scale and also determine exact contours and the state of degradation of impact craters.
- Surface targets: Mars, Phobos, Moon, Mercury, Venus.
