Proceedings of ESA-EUSC-JRC 8th Conference on Image Information Mining: Knowledge Discovery from Earth Observation Data
The Image Information Mining 2012 conference is the eighth in the series jointly organised by ESA and EUSC, and by JRC
since 2009. It took place for the first time in the German Aerospace Centre (DLR) premises, Oberpfaffenhofen site
(Germany), 24th--26th October 2012. Earth Observation (EO) data has increased significantly over the last decades with
sensors collecting terabytes of data per day. Meanwhile, the advent of sub-meter resolution Optical and Synthetic
Aperture Radar (SAR) sensors brought new dimensions to application areas with the consequence that the observed
details has grown exponentially. Moreover, decades of EO image time series will be continued in the future describing
land cover and/or scene evolution and dynamics. With plans for more missions and higher resolution EO systems, the
challenge is increasingly going to be how to augment the usability of the millions of images being collected to a larger and
larger group of end user applications (e.g., climate change, security, land use, etc.). This year's conference focuses on
automation in support of applications and services for knowledge discovery from EO data, for which Image Information
Mining plays a key role. Image Information Mining proves most successful when cross-cued from other disciplines. For
this reason, the conference topics are broadened towards more generic Information Mining thanks to a series of keynote
lectures in related fields. The conference proceedings include all contributions that have been accepted for oral and
poster presentations.
