SUMMARY:12th Advanced Training Course on Land Remote Sensing
DESCRIPTION:Background\nThe European Space Agency (ESA) organised an Advanced Training Course on Land Remote Sensing with the focus on Hydrology and Hazards in collaboration with the Wrocław University of Environmental and Life Sciences. This course was dedicated to train the next generation of Earth Observation (EO) scientists and experts\, working in the domains of hydrology or related hazards\, in using data from Copernicus Sentinels and other satellite missions for science and applications development. The course is part of the EO Science for Society element of ESA’s FutureEO programme. \nObjectives\n\n\n\n\nThe Advanced Training Course on Land Remote Sensing – EO for Hydrology and Hazards aimed at: \n\nTraining the next generation of scientists and professionals on remote sensing for hydrology and related hazards\nExplaining the theoretical principles\, processing algorithms and data products from multiple sources including optical\, thermal and microwave EO data for hydrology and hazards\nIntroducing tools and methods for the use of EO satellite data\, in particular the Sentinels and new SAR missions\nStimulating the use of EO in the domains of water cycle science\, water management and hazards such as landslides\, floods and drought\nDemonstrating cloud-based\, large-scale processing of EO data\n\nTopics\n\n\n\n\nThe training included theory and hands-on sessions on the following topics: \n\nIntroduction to status of relevant missions including Sentinels in operation and under development\nIntroduction to optical and SAR remote sensing for water and hazards\nDetection of water level changes and embankment safety\nEstimation of land surface temperature\, evapo(transpi)ration and soil moisture\nIrrigation mapping\, detection and quantification\nDrought monitoring\nDetection and monitoring of hydrology-related hazards or their risk\, including landslides\, floods and droughts\nMeasuring and monitoring of inland water quality\nMultisource data analysis\nIn-situ data collection and preparation\nTraining on the use of SNAP toolbox\n\nParticipation\n\n\n\n\nThe 5-day course was held from 25 to 29 September 2023 at the Wrocław University of Environmental and Life Sciences\, Poland. Post graduate\, PhD students\, post-doctoral research scientists and professionals from European countries and Canada interested in the applications of Earth Observation in Water cycle\, hydrology and hazards were invited to apply for the course. Research scientists\, students\, EO professionals from all other countries were also welcome to apply\, subject to availability of space. \nFor further information\, please go to the main website at https://landtraining2023.esa.int \nThe lecture and practical materials used on the course are available here: \n \n#ESALTC2023 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
