Independent Component Analysis of Satellite Radar Imagery for Volcanic Processes – IMRICA extension

Prime company: UNIVERSITY OF LEEDS, SCHOOL OF EARTH AND ENVIRONMENT (GB)

Satellite Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) is a powerful Earth Observation tool for the analysis of subaerial volcanic deformation – a parameter that is critical both for monitoring hazardous volcanic systems and for understanding magma storage in the shallow crust. The long duration and consistent acquisition strategy of ESA’s Sentinel-1 mission as part of the …

MULTI ACTOR FOREST INFORMATION SERVICE (MAFIS)

Prime company: GMATICS SRL (IT)

The MAFIS project will develop and demonstrate at pre-operational level a service aimed at providing consistent and statistically reliable information on forests, by combining multi-spectral satellite data and SAR data, to monitor natural and planted forests growth and forest losses due to human activities or to natural phenomena. The project will develop a specific methodology …

SAR4Wildfire

Prime company: KUNGLIGA TEKNISKA HÖGSKOLAN (SE)

The objective of tge SAR4Wildfire project is to develop a novel and automatic method, using Sentinel-1 SAR time series and a deep learning framework, for near real-time wildfire progression monitoring and burn severity mapping in preselected wildfire sites in Sweden and British Columbia, Canada. Whenever available, Sentinel-2 MSI data will be incorporated in the framework …

BALTIC+ Geodetic SAR for Baltic Height System Unification (SAR-HSU)

Prime company: TECHNICAL UNIVERSITY OF MUNICH (DE)

Height systems and related sea level observations are based on a number of measurement systems, which all have their own characteristics and deliver different type of observations. Traditionally, sea level is observed at tide gauge stations, which usually also serve as height reference stations for national levelling networks and therefore define a height system of …

MARINE LITTER SIGNATURES IN SYNTHETIC APERTURE RADAR IMAGES (MIREIA)

Prime company: ISARDSAT S.L. (ES)

This project complements on-going activities and other activities started under this call for proposals by focussing on optimising the techniques for the detection of marine litter in SAR data. This complements the use of optical data and modelling in order to progressively build up an integrated picture as to how marine litter (and marine plastics …

Advanced Sentinel-1 analysis ready data for Africa

Prime company: NORTHERN RESEARCH INSTITUTE (NORUT) (NO)

Historically for land application, synthetic aperture radar (SAR) satellite imagery has often been seen only as as complement to optical remote sensing in cloud covered areas. There are several reasons for this: 1) the threshold of interpretation and understanding of SAR imagery is often perceived as very high to an untrained user, 2) the human …
