What is RIOSS?

The Radar Image Oil Spill Seeker (RIOSS) is a program developed in Python by Conceição, et al (2021) as a machine learning system for detecting oil spills on sea surface through SAR images. This system was developed to support scientific studies on ocean oil spills, through an open and collaborative code, which is available on RIOSS' GitHub. In addition, a more complex operational version of RIOSS runs in nearly real time, at Satellite Oceanography Laboratory of the Federal University of Bahia, to detect possible oil spills on Brazilian coast.
