Journal ArticleDOI
Dengue spatial and temporal patterns, French Guiana, 2001.
Annelise Tran,Xavier Deparis,Philippe Dussart,Jacques Morvan,P. Rabarison,Franck Remy,Laurent Polidori,Jacques Gardon +7 more
TL;DR: To study a 2001 dengue fever outbreak in Iracoubo, French Guiana, the location of all patients’ homes and the date when symptoms were first observed were recorded and heterogeneity in the RR variations in space and time corresponds to known entomologic and epidemiologic factors.
Journal Article
Description of terrain as a fractal surface, and application to digital elevation model quality assessment
TL;DR: Fractional Brownian motion as discussed by the authors is a surface model through which the topographic surface may be described and provides a simple method for estimating the fractal dimension of a digital elevation model.
Journal ArticleDOI
Digital Elevation Model Quality Assessment Methods: A Critical Review
Laurent Polidori,Mhamad El Hage +1 more
TL;DR: The aim of this article is to review the main quality assessment methods, which may be separated into two approaches, namely, with or without reference data, called external and internal quality assessment, respectively.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nearshore intertidal topography and topographic-forcing mechanisms of an Amazon-derived mud bank in French Guiana
Edward J. Anthony,Franck Dolique,Antoine Gardel,Nicolas Gratiot,Christophe Proisy,Laurent Polidori +5 more
TL;DR: The intertidal topography in the vicinity of the contact zone between a longshore-migrating Amazon-derived mud bank and the muddy terrestrial shoreline in French Guiana was defined from a combination of satellite-based SPOT images, airborne lidar data and high-resolution total station ground surveying of a 75,000 m2 plot as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Spatial resolution improvement by merging MERIS-ETM images for coastal water monitoring
TL;DR: The robustness of the method is studied as well as the influence of the delay between the acquisitions of the two images.
