The possibility to operationally monitor the Earth’s land cover (changes) at high temporal resolution is nowadays given by EO multispectral dense time series available at global level, in particular Sentinel-2 and Landsat 8 data. Nonetheless, keeping thematic maps regularly updated is a complex and time consuming task. Large efforts have been devoted to date in …
The Training Course is dedicated to researchers, students, PhD students and young professionals from Slovakia, Bulgaria, Lithuania, Latvia, Croatia, Malta and Cyprus (PECS/Plan for European Cooperating States) and ESA Member States. Topics to be covered during the course: Basics of radar (SAR) and optical Remote Sensing (RS) Remote Sensing applications : Detection of land cover and land …
The European Space Agency (ESA) is organising an Advanced Training Course on Land Remote Sensing dedicated to training the next generation of Earth Observation (EO) scientists to exploit data from EO missions (e.g. the Copernicus Sentinels) for science and applications development. Post graduate, PhD students, post-doctoral research scientists and users from European countries and Canada …
Thanks to satellites a wealth of information is at our fingertips to understand the different components of our planet and how these components interact to form the Earth system as a whole. However, despite unprecedented progress in analysing and understanding the stream of data we have available, it still remains a challenge to analyse multiple …
Gross primary production (GPP) and terrestrial net primary production (NPP) are fundamental quantities in the global carbon cycle, and for the production of food, fibre and biomass for human use. This project aims at exploiting Sentinel-3 data to develop and validate a productive model, consistent across different regions and ecosystems.The objective of the TerrA-P project …
