Following the successful
1st PolInSAR workshop held in ESRIN in January 2003, The European
Space Agency hosted the 2nd international workshop on applications
of polarimetry and polarimetric interferometry.
The
workshop was held at ESRIN, Frascati, Italy on 17-21 January 2005.
Workshop recommendations are now available.
Participation
The
Workshop was open to ESA Principal Investigators, scientists and students working
in the field of SAR Polarimetry and Polarimetric Interferometry (Pol-InSAR), and
to representatives from national, European and international space
agencies.
Objectives
The main objectives of the
workshop were to:
- Provide
a forum for scientific exchange
