The ESA Atmospheric Toolbox project is an open source software for scientific analysis of atmospheric EO data. The primary instruments supported by the toolbox are Tropomi (Sentinel-5P), Aeolus, GOME-2 (MetOp), and OMI (Aura). But the toolbox also supports model data such as CAMS and data from grounds based instruments such as provided by EVDC. The tool consists …
The GOCE User Toolbox (GUT) is a compilation of tools for the use and analysis of GOCE gravity field models. It facilitates the use, viewing and post-processing of GOCE Level 2 mission data and allows the gravity field data, in conjunction and consistent with any other auxiliary data sets, to be pre-processed by laymen on …
The Sentinel Application Platform (SNAP) architecture is ideal for Earth Observation processing and analysis due to the following technological innovations: Extensibility, Portability, Modular Rich Client Platform, Generic EO Data Abstraction, Tiled Memory Management, and a Graph Processing Framework. Feature Highlights Common architecture for all Toolboxes Very fast image display and navigation even of giga-pixel images Graph Processing …
The combination of seismological and satellite gravity gradient imaging enhance our knowledge of Earth’s structure, especially in remote areas like the Antarctic continent, where even basic knowledge of lithospheric scale features is incomplete. A research team from Kiel University and the British Antarctic Survey exploited the satellite gravity gradients measured from 2009 to 2013 by …
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.
