18-MONTH POSITION AT CESBIO, TOULOUSE, FRANCE -
IMPLEMENTATION OF A HIGH PERFORMANCE COMPUTING
LAND-COVER MAP PRODUCTION SYSTEM USING SENTINEL
IMAGE TIME SERIES
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
1 Background
════════════
CESBIO is developing the `iota2' operational processing chain for the
production of land cover maps using image time series. The main data
source for this processing chain will be Sentinel-2, but Sentinel-1
and VHR images (SPOT6/7, Pléiades) will also be exploited.
This project contributes to the Scientific Expertise Centre on Land
Cover of the Theia Land Data Centre [1].
`iota2' is a free and open source software [2] based on the Orfeo
Toolbox library [3] and it runs on standard work stations and HPC
clusters.
The processing chain is able to produce large-scale land cover maps
(see [4] and [5]).
CESBIO is opening a 18-month position to work on the development,
maintenance and validation of the `iota2' processing chain. Candidates
should be non-French citizens of an EU country member.
2 Work description
══════════════════
The selected candidate will:
• work on the maintenance and evolution of the `iota2' processing
chain by implementing algorithms and work-flows in C++ using the
Orfeo Toolbox;
• prototype and validate feature extraction and machine learning
algorithms on CNES' HPC infrastructure leveraging the MPI library;
• participate in the development of the infrastructure for the
distribution of land cover maps to end users.
The candidate should have a solid engineering education with majors in
signal processing, image processing or computer science. Strong
foundations in software development in C++ and Python on GNU/Linux for
science applications, machine learning and data analysis. Knowledge of
the geo-spatial domain tools (GIS, WMS, OpenLayers) will be
appreciated.
