Service
Overview
Time-series SAR satellite observation data is accumulated and regularly analyzed, considering seasonal variations and noise. When abnormal changes are detected, users are promptly notified.
Expected
Benefits
-
Enables more efficient patrol operations by limiting on-site inspections to cases where unusual changes are detected.
-
By enabling wide-area monitoring regardless of weather conditions, the service helps prevent illegal dumping and improper storage.
Service Flow
Introduction
Monitoring
Registered locations include those with a history of illegal dumping, areas where illegal dumping is of concern, and sites where improper waste storage is suspected.
Observation scenes containing these monitoring points are identified, historical observation data is collected, and fluctuation models are created for each monitoring point.
The latest satellite observation data is regularly acquired, time-series data for each monitoring point is updated, and any abnormal changes from normal patterns are detected.
(If abnormal changes are detected, users are notified via email or other communication methods.)
