Excited to announce a new paper out of the @ClasticsLab & @txgeosciences (with co-authors @zzsylvester, @PaulMGeo , and D. Mohrig) exploring the kinematics of meander bend cutoffs in timelapse satellite imagery. The full OA paper is available here [1/6]: lyellcollection.org/doi/abs/…

ICYMI: New JPL Observational Products for End-Users from Remote Sensing Analysis (OPERA) Level 2 products are available at NASA's #ASFDAAC. ➡️Learn more about the new analysis-ready #SAR datasets: go.nasa.gov/3NKOxDp

ALT On October 25, 2023, Hurricane Otis made landfall near Acapulco, Mexico, as a Category 5 storm, causing widespread damage and flooding. This animation shows the OPERA RTC-S1 backscatter before landfall (October 24, 2023) and after landfall (November 2, 2023). The data show a clear increase in water extent between the October 24 image and the November 2 image.

We further explore the predictability of bend migration rates and patterns based on initial planform bend geometry using the simple geometric model of Howard and Knutson (1984) [5/6].

For those still around #AGU23, drop by Moscone South this morning and chat with me about new ways to track and quantify river meandering processes (1666) and/or this afternoon to discuss Jupyter Notebook applications in-development by the OPERA project team at JPL (0207).

New blog post highlighting a suite of Jupyter Notebooks to enable programmatic access to cloud-hosted USGS 3D Elevation Program (3DEP) #lidar data. Notebooks demonstrate how to use @pointcloudpipe to access & process data hosted by Amazon Open Data. opentopography.org/blog/new-… 1/2

This suite of programmatic workflows are enabled by–and rely heavily upon–flexible and customizable pipelines provided by the outstanding PDAL (@pointcloudpipe) library developed by the @hobuinc team.

Workflows enable users to generate elevation products for custom AOIs, @USGS quads/HUCs, and corridors. Derivative products include topographic difference maps, canopy height models, and RGB-colorized point clouds from 1m NAIP imagery.
