Radar-Cover

Objectives

1. Illustration of Sentinel-1 SAR land use products through the provision of prototype Level-2 products.

2. Assessment of the SENTINEL-1 performance on the basis of quantitative comparison with independent datasets and comparison to established performance requirements from end-users.

3. Quantification of the performance of level-2 algorithms for land use exploiting multi-temporal processing algorithms (e.g. multi-temporal filters, multi-temporal SAR data metrics)

4. Documentation of the impact of the Sentinel-1 mission concept (dual-polarization, frequent revisit) on land-cover mapping
