Check out the pilot study published in Remote Sensing (Volume 12, Issue 17, September 2020).
Huge thank you to co-authors Christopher Stewart and Daniel Lombraña González. Massive shout-out to the citizen scientists who participated. Big-up to the PhiLab at European Space Agency (ESA) / ESRIN for providing the enabling environment required to come up and follow through with super cool research projects.
