A Fifteen Year Record of Global Natural Gas Flaring Derived from Satellite Data

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used low light imaging data acquired by the Defense Meteorological Satellite Program (DMSP) from 1994 through 2008 to estimate national and global gas flaring.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

Overview of DMSP nightime lights and future possibilities

TL;DR: The Defense Meteorological Satellite Program (DMSP) Operational Linescan System (OLS) has a unique capability to collect low-light imaging data of the earth at night as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

A global inventory of coral reef stressors based on satellite observed nighttime lights

TL;DR: In this article, a satellite-based approach to gather information about the threat to coral reefs worldwide is presented, where three chosen reef stressors (development, gas flaring and heavily lit fishing boat activity) are analyzed using nighttime lights data derived from the Defense Meteorological Satellite Program (DMSP) produced at the National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration, National Geophysical Data Center (NOAA/NGDC).
Book ChapterDOI

Who's In The Dark: Satellite Based Estimates Of Electrification Rates

TL;DR: In this article, a technique has been developed to estimate the percent population having electric power access based on the presence of satellite detected nighttime lighting, and a global survey was conducted for the year 2006 using nighttime lights collected by the U.S. Air Force Defense Meteorological Satellite Program (DMSP) in combination with the United States Department of Energy Landscan population dataset.
