We've recently finished a project on evaluating various open elevation data sources (e.g. AW3D, ASTER GDEM, GMTED & SRTM) for both polar regions. Numerous heterogeneous data issues have been discovered and a set of solutions to minimize inherent data uncertainties been proposed.

On this day last year, #bushfires were raging from Sydney to the NSW/QLD border, an area stretching ~700 km.
We use JMA’s #Himawari-8 imagery to revisit & systematically record all major fire days during the unprecedented 2019-20 bushfire season in #Australia.
