SUMMARY:International Workshop on High-Resolution Thermal EO
DESCRIPTION:Background\nHigh-resolution thermal Earth Observation (EO) has been identified as a major observational gap in our rapidly warming climate. Land-surface temperature is a key variable needed for understanding and adapting to climate variability\, managing water resources sustainably for agricultural production\, mitigating health stress during heatwaves\, predicting droughts\, monitoring coastal and inland waters and addressing natural hazards such as fires and volcanoes. \nFor actionable information\, Land Surface Temperature has to be measured with both high-resolution\, to monitor management units such as single fields\, and at sufficient temporal frequency. These requirements have been recognized by policy makers and international space agencies resulting in the preparation of a range of high-resolution thermal missions including TRISHNA (CNES/ISRO)\, LSTM (ESA/EC) and EAGLE-TIR (NASA) to be launched in coming years. The ECOSTRESS mission (NASA) is providing excellent precursor data for these upcoming missions. Further there is an increasing interest of New Space initiatives already launching smallsat missions and constellations for thermal observations with similar resolution. \nBuilding on the ongoing cooperation between the space agencies\, the main objective of this Workshop is to prepare for the availability of high-resolution thermal observations\, strengthen synergies among the upcoming missions and to establish priority areas for future projects (e.g.\, the ESA Sentinel User Preparation initiative). \nObjectives\n\nAssess the status of current and planned international high-resolution thermal missions for terrestrial and coastal applications\nReview the main related activities and projects in the relevant science and operational application areas\nPrepare the community for the use of the upcoming high-resolution thermal missions\nStrengthen international cooperation and coordination in the space and ground segment operation\, calibration and validation\, products definition & harmonization\, data access and data exploitation\nIdentify high-priorities topics for future R&D activities supporting the preparation of thermal EO applications\n\nAbstracts\nThe abstract submission interface is now open\, and we invite you to submit your abstract HERE along with your selection of the topic and type of presentation (oral or poster) proposed.\nDeadline for abstract submission: 2 November 2026 \nFor further information\, please visit the official workshop website\n
