The goal of this project is to further develop and validate a high frequency SAR interferometric phase center (DSM) approach together with existing and forthcoming DTMs to map forest biomass (AGBD). To that end, the study will: 1) develop a novel method for annual AGBD mapping with individual TanDEM-X DSMs and Sentinel-1 time series for …
Background The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO), in association with the European Space Agency (ESA), are jointly organising a course on Advanced SAR Technologies & Applications. This course focuses on SAR data processing, polarimetry, and interferometry. It will cover a range of applications, from terrain mapping to vegetation analysis and ocean/coastal monitoring. Objectives The …
The focus of CROSCIM is Arctic operations and the development of a processor that will take advantage of the novel products from the Copernicus Expansion missions and deliver near real time and short term forecast (up to 2 days) level 4 products for sea ice concentration, sea ice thickness, snow thickness, sea surface height anomaly …
This PolInSAR course is an online, hands-on course that aims to develop an understanding of the information content of multi-parameter SAR data in an interactive way, without assuming any prior/background knowledge – though some knowledge in Python programming is welcome. It is organised around 11 sessions over 11 weeks, with lectures and tutorials ranging from SAR image formation up …
This in-person training, organised in the frame of the ISPRS-SELPER 2024 symposium, will take place just before the event at the same location. The main purpose is to present and to teach how to handle various tools to process Earth Observation (EO) data relevant for forestry applications. The course will combine theoretical lectures and practical …

The lectures can also be found on YouTube by clicking here. Access specific videos (click on ), presentation slides (click on ), and exercise data (click …
The educational materials from the ‘SAR Basic Theory & Exercises with SNAP’ event follow the launch of Sentinel-1B. The overall focus was on the history of ESA SAR missions, data access, and Sentinel-1 data processing techniques; it was held in August 2016 at ESRIN. Please note that the videos are in French and can be …
Background The National Commission for Space Activities (CONAE), the European Space Agency (ESA), and the IEEE Geoscience and Remote Sensing Society (GRSS) are jointly organising a course on Remote Sensing as a Tool for Monitoring Land and Forest Resources. This course focuses on the uses and applications of the SAOCOM and Sentinel-1 SAR missions. It is …
Edna is currently an ESA Living Planet Fellow at the University of Bristol, UK. She completed a PhD in volcano remote sensing at the University of Leeds, UK in 2022 where her research focused on using high resolution Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) to examine volcanic deposits. During her PhD she worked closely with the Centre …
