Sentinel-2 är ett jordobservationssystem som med sin höga rumsliga upplösning (10x10m) möjliggör analyser även inom jordbruksfält. En produkt framställd från Sentinel-2 är fenologi och produktivitetsdata från High-Resolution Vegetation Phenology and Productivity (HR-VPP). HR-VPP är en produkt meSentinel-2 based data provides interesting opportunities for land monitoring and applications in agriculture. High-Resolution Vegetation Phenology and Productivity (HR-VPP) is derived from Sentinel-2 data and offers up to 13 metrics. These metrics have a high spatial resolution (10x10m) and enables the possibility for in-field agricultural monitoring. The aim of this study is to evaluate four of t

Abstract Hydrogen as an alternative energy carrier has been up for discussion over decades. Perhaps this time, however, the political momentum and global technical context could be advantageous enough for the hydrogen economy to finally materialize.
