The system uses two STELLA spectrometers &#8211; an AS7341 8-channel (415-680 nm) and AS7265x 18-channel (410-940 nm) &#8211; that reveal measurement variability, calibration challenges, and atmospheric interference effects.<\/p><p class=\"mb-2 whitespace-pre-wrap\">By confronting these uncertainties with accessible instruments, users develop appreciation for why NASA missions require years of development, extensive calibration protocols, and sophisticated technology. This hands-on experience demonstrates why precision satellite sensors like <a href=\"https:\/\/science.nasa.gov\/mission\/landsat\/\">Landsat<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/pace.gsfc.nasa.gov\/\">PACE<\/a> represent the pinnacle of remote sensing engineering and why NASA must continue pushing technological boundaries to maintain scientific leadership.<\/p><h3 class=\"mb-2 whitespace-pre-wrap\"><strong>Technical Innovation and Problem Solving<\/strong><\/h3><p class=\"mb-2 whitespace-pre-wrap\">EarthLens addresses significant challenges identified in current citizen science platforms. Research revealed that 63.2% of users took more than 9 hours to complete land cover observations using traditional GLOBE tools, often losing data or struggling with poor image quality. The team&#8217;s solution combines:<\/p><ul><li>Drone platform with dual STELLA spectrometers for comprehensive spectral monitoring<\/li><li>High-resolution Raspberry Pi cameras (3280 x 2464 pixels)<\/li><li>Mobile app with real-time drone feeds, AI-powered land cover analysis, and social features<\/li><li>GPS-accurate data collection that prevents the data loss plaguing existing platforms<\/li><\/ul><h3 class=\"mb-2 whitespace-pre-wrap\"><strong>Building on Research Foundation<\/strong><\/h3><p class=\"mb-2 whitespace-pre-wrap\">The project extends work by Russanne Low, Peder Nelson, Cassie Soeffing, Andrew Clark, and the SEES 2020 Mosquito Mappers Research Team, whose 2021 study demonstrated connecting ground observations with satellite imagery. EarthLens advances this framework through drone-based data collection that bridges the gap between citizen science and professional Earth observation.<\/p><h3 class=\"mb-2 whitespace-pre-wrap\"><strong>Advancing Science and Technology Leadership<\/strong><\/h3><p class=\"mb-2 whitespace-pre-wrap\">The system incorporates AI for automated land cover classification while enabling users to learn remote sensing principles used in NASA missions. Though STELLA and EarthLens aren&#8217;t peer-reviewed research instruments, they provide valuable experience with measurement challenges that drive NASA&#8217;s commitment to advancing calibration methods and developing more sophisticated technology.<\/p><p class=\"mb-2 whitespace-pre-wrap\">EarthLens demonstrates how understanding sensor limitations motivates continuous advancement in Earth observation capabilities. NASA&#8217;s investment in precision-calibrated missions and cutting-edge engineering ensures American leadership in space-based science and technology, maintaining the nation&#8217;s competitive advantage in understanding our planet through the most advanced remote sensing systems ever developed.<\/p><h3><strong>Related Links<\/strong><\/h3><ul><li><a href=\"https:\/\/essopenarchive.org\/users\/995706\/articles\/1356579-earthlens-a-novel-drone-based-citizen-science-tool-for-land-cover-observation-and-analysis\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">EarthLens<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/science.nasa.gov\/sciact-team\/stem-enhancement-in-earth-science\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">NASA STEM Enhancement in Earth Sciences (SEES)<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/science.nasa.gov\/sciact-team\/nesec\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">NASA Earth Science Education Collaborative (NESEC)<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/strategies.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Institute for Global Strategies<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.agu.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">American Geophysical Union (AGU)<\/a><\/li><\/ul><h3 class=\"mb-2 whitespace-pre-wrap\"><strong>References<\/strong><\/h3><p>Nandini Khaneja, Neev Tamboli, Jordan Rodriguez, et al.\u00a0EarthLens: A Novel Drone-based Citizen Science Tool for Land Cover Observation and Analysis.\u00a0<i>ESS Open Archive .<\/i>\u00a0December 26, 2025.<br \/><span class=\"publication-status__citation-doi\">DOI:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.22541\/essoar.176677108.80716415\/v1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">10.22541\/essoar.176677108.80716415\/v1<\/a><\/span><\/p><p class=\"mb-2 whitespace-pre-wrap\">Low RD, Nelson PV, Soeffing C, Clark A and SEES 2020 Mosquito Mappers Research Team (2021) Adopt a Pixel 3 km: A Multiscale Data Set Linking Remotely Sensed Land Cover Imagery With Field Based Citizen Science Observation.
