An important and difficult point in the application of satellite imagery is refining the
positioning model and improving the geometric accuracy. In this article, we focus on
improvement in geometric accuracy and develop a new rational function model (RFM)
refinement method.

Time series of leaf area index (LAI) products are now widely used, and the temporal
validation is the prerequisite for their proper application. However, a systematical
comparison between different products using both direct and indirect methods
is still lacking. The objective of this paper is to assess and compare the temporal
performances of four LAI products: Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer
(MODIS) LAI (MOD)15A2, MOD15A2h, Geoland2 Version 1 (GEOV1), and Global Land
Surface Satellite (GLASS).

This article proposes a new building extraction method from high-resolution remote
sensing images, based on GrabCut, which can automatically select foreground and
background samples under the constraints of building elevation contour lines.

The Chinese lunar probe Chang’E-4 successfully landed in the Von Kármán crater on the far
side of the Moon. This article presents the topographic and geomorphological mapping and
their joint analysis for selecting the Chang’E-4 landing site in the Von Kármán crater.
