Hi,
Is there a more precise description of the data somewhere?
I understand we are dealing with Sentinel-1 and Sentinel-2 data, but the description is a bit vague:
> The dataset includes post-event radar imagery, which captures backscatter intensity changes on the ground, and change detection bands calculated by subtracting pre-event from post-event data.
So is the Sentinel-2 image from before?
There are then ascending and descending versions of Sentinel-1. Are these post event?
There are then "Diff" versions of Sentinel-1 ascending and descending.
Are these then Sentinel-1 scans from before/after subtracted from each other?
I guess the diff versions are the pre and post event difference.
Hi, the Difference channels are post - pre event. All the other channels are post event. Please note that post event imagery alone does not capture changes.
Band Descriptions:
Ah, Ok thanks.
So the only pre-event info is in the diff channels if I understand correctly.
Hello!
I wonder why we dont get a pre-image of Sentinel-2 as well? I strongly assume that it would bring a lot of value to the model by giving more context information. Some images show little white spots that are easily misclassified as landslides. A pre-image would likely show the very same spots and the model could be almost-sure that thats an individual landscape characteristic.
Good point! And yes it I agree it would.
