This poses a number of issues in terms of volume (e.g., data volumes have increased 10× in the last 5 years); velocity (e.g., Sentinel-2 is capturing a new image of any given place every 5 days); and variety (e.g., different types of sensors, spatial/spectral resolutions). Traditional approaches to the acquisition, management, distribution, and analysis of EO data have limitations (e.g., data size, heterogeneity, and complexity) that impede their true information potential to be realized. Addressing these big data challenges requires a change of paradigm and a move away from local processing and data distribution methods to lower the barriers caused by data size and related complications in data management. To tackle these issues, EO data cubes (EODC) are a new paradigm revolutionizing the way users can store, organize, manage, and analyze EO data. This Special Issue is consequently aiming to cover the most recent advances in EODC developments and implementations to broaden the use of EO data to larger communities of users, support decision-makers with timely and actionable information converted into meaningful geophysical variables, and ultimately unlock the information power of EO data.GeographyStudy and teachingScienceStudy and teachingGeographyStudy and teaching.ScienceStudy and teaching.910.71Giuliani Gregory1348262NjHacINjHaclBOOK9910688457103321Earth Observation Data Cubes3085621UNINA03706oam 2200673I 450 991077929720332120230802005205.01-280-68708-897866136640201-136-72227-00-203-81645-510.4324/9780203816455 (CKB)2550000000104063(EBL)981973(OCoLC)804663074(SSID)ssj0000681303(PQKBManifestationID)11406724(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000681303(PQKBWorkID)10663073(PQKB)11118124(MiAaPQ)EBC981973(Au-PeEL)EBL981973(CaPaEBR)ebr10569284(CaONFJC)MIL366402(OCoLC)802056330(FINmELB)ELB134474(EXLCZ)99255000000010406320180706e20121993 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrEffective schools in developing countries /edited by Henry M.

The initiatives reviewed published and unpublished documents and both qualitative and statistical studies were examined. Countries include Brazil, Burundi, Colombia, Ghana, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Thailand and the United States. Each initiative was developed independently to address unique challenges and situations but taken as a group, the features of the approaches described in this volume can be viewed as a basis for conRoutledge library editions.Education ;v. 8.Education, ElementaryDeveloping countriesCase studiesSchool management and organizationDeveloping countriesCase studiesEducation, ElementarySchool management and organization372.91724Levin Henry M287308Lockheed Marlaine E1534905MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910779297203321Effective schools in developing countries3782764UNINA
