Royal Research Ship James Clark Ross started its roughly 4000 miles, 40 days voyage across the Atlantic Ocean at the end of September. It has been carrying out in situ measurements with an array of instruments including above-water radiometric optical sensors that measure upwelling radiance from the sea surface for validation of satellite ocean colour, …
The purpose of this conference is to provide scientists and data users with the opportunity to present first-hand and up-to-date results from their on-going research and application development activities by using data from past and current Satellites. The conference is open to: Sentinels users; Scientists; Students; Representatives from national, European and International Space Agencies, Institutions …
Three weeks to go before the start of the Φ-week event to take place at ESRIN, ESA’s Earth Observation centre in Frascati, Italy from 12-16 November 2018. The dense agenda is built around New Space with a special focus on EO. The event brings together emerging space Investors, tech leaders, start-ups and entrepreneurs with the space …
Replay the live-transmitted from the Azores opening session of an event where world-class scientists met to discuss the latest developments in our understanding of Earth’s surface variations observed by altimetry. Radar altimeters record the surface topography along the satellite’s ground track. They precisely measure a satellite’s height above water, land or ice by timing the …
Following on from the “15 Years of Progress in Radar Altimetry” Symposium in 2006, and the “20 Years of Progress in Radar Altimetry” Symposium in 2012, both deemed a very successful landmark by the participants and the readership of the Proceedings, we have now reached the 25-year anniversary of the first supply of ERS-1 and …
The next Living Planet Symposium (LPS19) will take place in Milan, Italy, on 13–17 May 2019. Abstracts can be now submitted on lps19.esa.int/abstracts until 11 November 2018 (23:59 CEST). Navigate through the session list and descriptions and carefully check out guidelines for submitting an abstract.
A full week is just over of training on the theory and applications of land remote sensing, ranging from the theoretical fundamentals and advanced concepts of spaceborne optical, thermal and microwave remote sensing to hands on use of software tools for a variety of applications including urban mapping, change detection, fire detection, forestry, vegetation monitoring, …
White paper with recommendations from the AI and EO community workshop held at ESA/ESRIN in March 2018.
Over the last decade, rapid developments in digital technologies and in our capability to monitor our home planet from space with Earth Observation (EO) satellites have led to new and huge opportunities for science and businesses. There is an increasing need to mine the large amount of data generated by the new generation of satellites …
SAR altimetry missions are boosting new developments in fields that exploit the quality of high-resolution products for sea surface topography, wave height, and wind speed. To review recent progress in and discuss future plans for altimetry technology at coasts, 88 scientists from 28 countries met at the 11th Coastal Altimetry Workshop earlier this summer. Read more …
