Spotting a Tree from a Pixel: A Creator’s Statement
If we keep zooming in on a digital image, before long, we will reach a pixel. A pixel is a block of color of nothing, a set of RGB values, and the resolution limit of a digital optical device. Here is where human vision ends, but where the story of seeing something where there is nothing begins. On...

A pixel is a block of color of nothing, a set of RGB values, and the resolution limit of a digital optical device. Here is where human vision ends, but where the story of seeing something where there is nothing begins. On the planetary scale, the resolution limit of satellite sensors conceals objects as large as trees underneath a pixel. Remote sensing scientists switch between ground-level observation and aerial v... |
