ESA 7th Advanced Training Course on Radar Polarimetry
- Start Date:
- June 12, 2023
- End Date:
- June 16, 2023
- City:
- Toulouse
- Country:
- France
- Region:
- Europe
- Description:
- The 7th ESA Advanced Course on Radar Polarimetry is designed to train the next generation of Earth Observation (EO) scientists in dual and fully polarimetric data for science and applications development. Introduce available tools and methods for the exploitation of dual-pol and full-pol data; Show state-of-the-art methods and applications in Radar Polarimetry, Polarimetric SAR Interferometry and SAR Tomography; Provide an introduction to the BIOMASS mission, data and applications.
- Targeted Audience:
- Post graduate, PhD students, post-doctoral research scientists and users from ESA member states and associated countries interested in Radar Polarimetry, BIOMASS and their applications are invited to apply. Research scientists and students from all other countries are also welcome to apply and participate in the course, subject to availability.
- Expected Outcomes:
- The objective is to prepare participants for the scientific exploitation of the data from past, current (eg. ALOS-2, Sentinel-1, GF-3, RISAT, SAOCOM, RCM) and future SAR Polarimetric Missions (e.g. NISAR and BIOMASS). The course provides a substantial and balanced introduction to the basics and advanced concepts of: SAR data, radar interferometry (InSAR), radar polarimetry (POLSAR), InSAR polarimetry (POLinSAR), and SAR Tomography (TomoSAR) theory and applications.
