The European Space Agency (ESA) is organising a Φ-week event focusing on EO Open Science and FutureEO, to review the latest developments in Open Science trends and kick-start innovative activities of the recently created Φ-department looking at FutureEO.
The RUS team will be present during the exhibition and will also have a poster session.
16 October | RUS Webinar: Urban classification with Sentinel-1
Seats are
still available!
During this webinar, we will employ RUS to map build-up areas in the
surroundings of Bochum, Germany using a supervised classification (random
forest algorithm) and coherence derived from Sentinel-1 SLC data.
We will show you how to access the RUS Service and how to download,
process, analyze and visualize the free data acquired by the Copernicus
satellites.
The SISC 6th Annual Conference entitled “Recent trends in climate sciences, adaptation and mitigation” will take place on 17-19 October 2018 at the Ca’ Foscari University of Venice, Venezia-Mestre, Italy.
Do you still have any doubts about the RUS service? How to request a virtual machine? Or to access Sentinel data?
Come meet out team expert during the Copernicus Info Session in Sevilla on 4 October 2018 and clear out all your doubts!!!
20 September | RUS Webinar: Active fire detection with Sentinel-3
A few
seats are still available!
In this
webinar, you will learn the basics of image processing for active fire
detection: we will show you how to access the RUS Service and how to
download, process, analyze and visualize the free data acquired by the
Copernicus satellites. We will use the ESA SNAP Sentinel-3 Toolbox to
demonstrate the methodology to detect active fires with the SLSTR instrument
onboard Sentinel-3.
