Upsampling

An algorithm that improves the spatial resolution of Pléiades Neo imagery from 30 cm to 10 cm.


Overview

The process upsamples the spatial resolution of Pléiades Neo imagery from 30 cm to 10 cm, using convolutional neural networks. You can choose to upsample one of the following band combinations:

  • Red, green, and blue bands
  • NIR, red edge, and deep blue bands

The result is a GeoTIFF file with an upsampled spatial resolution.

Upsampling can be used as a pre-processing step before change detection, vegetation detection, infrastructure detection, fire risk estimation, and land use management.

Requirements for input imagery

Checkmark inline-icon The STAC item should be a Pléiades Neo image of the display radiometric processing level.

Checkmark inline-icon The STAC item should be CNAM-compatible. Check that the STAC item has been added to storage in 2023 or later.

Input parameters

Required parameters

Input imagery

You need to specify the STAC items you want to apply the process to.

Output title

You need to specify the title of the output objects. This title will be assigned to the resulting STAC item and STAC collection.

Bands to upsample

You need to specify if you want to upsample the red, green, and blue bands or the NIR, red edge, and deep blue bands.

ParameterOverview
inputs.titleobject / required
The title of the output objects: STAC item and STAC collection.
inputs.itemobject / required
The STAC item link in the following format: https://api.up42.com/v2/assets/stac/collections/{collection-id}/items/{item-id}
inputs.RGBboolean / required
Whether the red, green, and blue bands should be upsampled. If NED is true, it should be set to false. The default value is true.
inputs.NEDboolean / required
Whether the NIR, red edge, and deep blue bands should be upsampled. If RGB is true, it should be set to false. The default value is false.
