Journal ArticleDOI
GMES Sentinel-1 mission
Ramon Torres,Paul Snoeij,Dirk Geudtner,David Bibby,Malcolm Davidson,Evert Attema,Pierre Potin,Bjorn Rommen,Nicolas Floury,Michael Brown,Ignacio Navas Traver,Patrick Deghaye,Berthyl Duesmann,Betlem Rosich,Nuno Miranda,Claudio Bruno,Michelangelo L'Abbate,Renato Croci,Andrea Pietropaolo,Markus Huchler,Friedhelm Rostan +20 more
TL;DR: The unique data availability performance of the Sentinel-1 routine operations makes the mission particularly suitable for emergency response support, marine surveillance, ice monitoring and interferometric applications such as detection of subsidence and landslides.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rice crop mapping and monitoring using ERS-1 data based on experiment and modeling results
T. Le Toan,F. Ribbes,Li-Fang Wang,Nicolas Floury,Kung-Hau Ding,Jin Au Kong,M. Fujita,T. Kurosu +7 more
TL;DR: The results appear promising for the use of ERS-1 and RADARSAT data for rice monitoring and a method for rice fields mapping has been developed, based on the temporal variation of the radar response between two acquisition dates.
Journal ArticleDOI
Multitemporal ERS SAR analysis applied to forest mapping
TL;DR: The performance of a classifier based only on change is assessed on a range of test sites in the UK, Finland, and Poland, and the possibility of improving performance by including radiometric information in the mapping strategy is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
The PARIS Ocean Altimeter In-Orbit Demonstrator
TL;DR: An in-orbit demonstration mission that would prove the expected altimetric accuracy suited for mesoscale ocean science is proposed, and an instrument specially conceived to fully exploit the GNSS signals for best altIMetric performance and to provide multifrequency observations to correct for the ionospheric delay is described.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effect of surface roughness on multifrequency polarimetric SAR data
F. Mattia,T. Le Toan,Jean-Claude Souyris,C. De Carolis,Nicolas Floury,Francesco Posa,N.G. Pasquariello +6 more
TL;DR: Frequency, polarimetric SAR data acquired during the second SIR-C/XSAR mission over the Matera (Italy) test site are analyzed to assess the possibility of extracting relevant information about surface roughness using polarimetry and indicate an enhanced sensitivity of the correlation coefficient onroughness using circular polarizations.
