Proba-V Multi-Temporal Super-Resolution Guided by Sentinel-2

Multi-image super-resolution (MISR) is a technique used to increase the spatial resolution of images acquired by remote sensing platforms by combining the images acquired through multiple revisits. Supervised training of MISR models requires collecting high-resolution images to be used as ground truth. Except for a few special cases, this involves acquiring images from a different satellite, resulting in a shift in the optical and radiometric characteristics with respect to the sensor to be super-resolved. In this paper, we explore the use of Sentinel-2 images to train a MISR model for Proba-V images and highlight the challenges of this pursuit.
