Under these conditions the significance of data fusion can be uncertain and conservative assumptions, necessary to ensure low false detection probabilities, need to be coupled with innovative processing and in situ strategies to increase the detection efficiency of PS objects and data analysis. Although the site information confirms the reliability of PS data, in the absence of ground monitoring and detailed records of landslide movements materials analysis methods and it is difficult to identify the main mechanism of the detected field-tests. In general, in complex urban/peri-urban settings, the analysis of conservation and valorization strategies should always be considered together with in situ controls and ground monitoring data and novel list of materials analysis methods. In addition new computational environments are also emerging - cloud computing which promises to provide vast computational resources on demand. We are moving to such environments to better share “open-resources” between compute intensive applications, to provide for surges in demand.
The project is intended to strengthen and further develop a research on "data harmonization”, a prerequisite in establishing a fundamental climate data record, and additional science products with many potential applications fostering knowledge transfer into the GMES service domain and other European International Programmes. This is a work-in-progress.
