通过卫星船舶监测提升海上领域意识

Translated by Dr. Mengyi Jin

海上领域意识(Maritime Domain Awareness, MDA)在海事领域面临着诸多挑战。卫星技术的应用,为大范围、持续性的海域监测提供了重要支持。在该背景下,合成孔径雷达(SAR)因其全天候的能力而脱颖而出,广泛应用于环境监测、国防系统等多个领域。此外,卫星星座(satellite constellations)具备诸多优势,如全球覆盖、定期重访、远程可达以及海量数据获取能力(Sandau et al., 2010;Graziano et al., 2012)。

Enhancing maritime domain awareness through ship detection in satellite imagery

Maritime Domain Awareness (MDA) confronts significant challenges in the maritime domain, leveraging satellite technologies that play a role in enabling extensive and consistent area mapping. In this case, Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) stands out for its all-weather capability, serving as a crucial tool for applications ranging from environmental monitoring to defense systems (Ulaby and Long, 2014).
