Developing an automated tool for SAR parameter optimization

Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) satellites provide wide area global perspectives through images of the Earth’s surfaces and its governing processes. Capable of detecting small variations in surface roughness, and unconstrained by lighting and weather conditions, SAR is a robust remote sensing instrument. Designing and operating a SAR is a complex process, as there are numerous […]

Congested user-choice EV charging location model

Circuit électrique, operated by Hydro-Québec, currently owns most of the public charging infrastructure for electric vehicles (EVs) in Quebec. Over the next few years, more charging station owners are expected to enter the market. This makes it necessary to anticipate the impact of competition in terms of service quality. This places us in the domain […]
