In the world of satellite altimetry, precision is key. For years, satellites have revolutionized how we measure sea levels, monitor ocean currents, and track environmental changes. But there’s been one tricky area for researchers: coastal regions. Historically, satellite altimeters have struggled to provide reliable data near coastlines. That’s where ALES — the Adaptive Leading Edge […]
EarthConsole® Stories are experiences about how we helped universities, research centres or service developers to leverage Earth Observation data to extract valuable insights for their research, educational or pre-commercial projects. In the frame of the Sentinel-6 Poseidon-4 Ground Processor Prototype project, a Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) back-projection fully focused processor for Sentinel-6 (S6) was developed […]
EarthConsole® Stories are experiences about how we helped universities, research centres or service developers to leverage Earth Observation data to extract valuable insights for their research, educational or pre-commercial projects. The ESA River Discharge Climate Change Initiative aims to generate long-term climate data records—spanning at least 20 years—of river discharge for selected river basins and […]
Our planet continually undergoes transformations, with natural and human-induced displacement shaping its surface. Comprehending these changes is paramount across various disciplines, from environmental science to disaster preparedness and response. Fortunately, advancements in satellite technology have provided us with tools to detect and study the Earth’s surface dynamics. In particular, the Differential Synthetic Aperture Radar Interferometry […]
The management of Earth Observation data, from their retrieval to processing setup and IT infrastructure management, can be complex. These tasks may take you significant time and resources that you would most probably prefer to spend on your scientific work. At EarthConsole®, we understand the challenges you face. That’s why we handle all this complexity […]
Earth surface deformation due to phenomena like volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, landslides, land subsidence due to fluid extraction activities or large infrastructure construction, can be effectively investigated using Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) sensors. Through the SAR Interferometry (InSAR) technique, two radar images of the Earth’s surface are captured from slightly different angles. By comparing these images, […]
We are pleased to share the conclusion of the European Commission OCRE (Open Clouds for Research Environments) [1] financed project led by CENTEC (Centre for Marine Technology and Ocean Engineering) – Instituto Superior Técnico de Lisboa. With our support here at EarthConsole®, this project aimed at evaluating renewable wave energy resources in the coastal zone, […]
EarthConsole® Stories are experiences about how we helped universities, research centres or service developers to leverage Earth Observation data to extract valuable insights for their research, educational or pre-commercial projects. This study aims at using Sentinel-6 and Sentinel-3 FFSAR data for monitoring changes in water levels within the Yangtze River during the period of January […]
As we near the close of 2023, it is the perfect time to unwrap some of the highlights of this year, which has been nothing short of extraordinary for EarthConsole®. We’ve been right there, sticking to our promise of helping the scientific community getting value added information from Earth Observation data. Been at it for […]
The ESA Altimetry Virtual Lab hosted on EarthConsole® is set to take center stage at the AGU Annual Meeting 2023, offering a unique opportunity for attendees to delve into the world of its altimetry data processing services. Dr. Jérôme Benveniste, the Lab’s initiator and Senior Advisor at the European Space Agency (ESA), is geared up […]
