SUMMARY:Second Biomass Retrieval Inter-comparison eXperiment (BRIX-2)
DESCRIPTION:This online event\, held within the context of POLINSAR 2021\, aims at: \n\n\n\n\n\nProviding an objective\, standardized comparison and assessment of biomass retrieval algorithms developed for the BIOMASS\, NISAR and GEDI missions\, and fusion of these mission datasets;\nEstablishing a forum to involve scientists in the development of retrievals that have so far not been part of the Biomass community;\nLeading to the adoption of vetted validation standards and methods to compare biomass estimates to reference datasets (e.g. field plots or airborne lidar biomass maps);\nCollecting inputs from the biomass user and scientific community on data formats and characteristics towards the generation of Analysis Ready Data.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThese objectives will be achieved by making available standardised test cases (based on airborne campaign and spaceborne data) on the ESA-NASA Mission Analysis and Algorithm Platform\, allowing the scientific community to develop and apply retrieval algorithms based on this test case\, and finally compare and evaluate the performance of submitted results. \n\n\n
