- Abstract
Here we discuss various coastal and ocean science applications of the Earth Observation Satellite-04 (EOS04) mission by the Indian Space Research Organisation. Automated oil spill detection using EOS-04, Medium Resolution ScanSAR data is carried out that involves segmenting of dark regions and classification of oil spills from look-alikes using a rank based algorithm. Lagrangian forecasting model is then used to predict the oil spill track. Genetic algorithm is employed to convert backscatter from EOS-04 into Significant Wave Height and wave spectra. The wavelength and propagation direction of ocean internal solitary waves are estimated using EOS-04 data. High resolution data in Fine Resolution Stripmap mode is used to estimate coastal bathymetry based on wave shoaling effect. The unique ability of EOS-04, with a range of spatial resolutions and various modes of operation form an essential ocean observation dataset that enables the scientific community to improve the understanding of complex coastal ocean processes.
