During the 14th Brazilian Remote Sensing Symposium (SBSR) a half day training course was given on the use of the ESA Toolboxes: BEAM, NEST, LEOWorks and the UNESCO software Bilko. The objective was to demonstrate some of the main functions of the software, focussing on the applications of disaster monitoring and environmental degradation monitoring. The …
On 27-31 October 2008 ESA and the Czech Space Office (CSO) jointly organised a training course in Radar Remote Sensing, held in the Charles University in Prague. The objectives of the course were to train Czech and PECS professional engineers and scientists on the state of the art in radar interferometry (InSAR), both processing and …
The European Space Agency organises a series of regular advanced thematic training courses in Europe. These training courses – initially covering ocean, land and atmosphere applications – are hosted in European Universities, with the host country rotating among the ESA Member States. The 2008 course was dedicated to training on the exploitation of Earth Observation …
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: European Space Agency (ESA) organises a series of summer schools on Monitoring of the Earth System to promote the exploitation of Earth Observation EO data across disciplines, with a specific focus on their assimilation into Earth System models. The Summer Schools last for two-week and are held in ESA/ESRIN (near Rome, Italy). …
From 25 February to 07 March 2008 ESA organised an ASAR training course in Hanoi, Vietnam with the following objectives: To train Vietnamese professional engineers and scientists on the state of the art in remote sensing (focussing on radar) To enable a better understanding of the key concepts of the ESA Envisat missions, in particular …
On 28 November 2007, in Mendoza, Argentina, a one day training course was provided on the use of the ESA and UNESCO EO software toolboxes. These included BEAM, BEST, Bilko and LEOWorks. The presentations covered ESA EO Data Access, ENVISAT (A)ATSR Instrument Series and ENVISAT MERIS Instrument.
The European Space Agency is organizing a new series of regular advanced thematic training courses. These trainings – covering initially ocean, land and atmosphere applications – are hosted in European Universities, with the host country rotating among the ESA Member States.
