The European Space Agency organised the 9th International Workshop on Science and Applications of SAR Polarimetry and Polarimetric Interferometry - POLinSAR - from 28 January to 1 February 2019. The workshop took place at ESA ESRIN in Frascati, Italy.

The objectives of this workshop were to:

• Provide a forum for scientific exchange
• Present the latest exploitation results from full-pol airborne and spaceborne systems and assess the state-of-the-art
• Review retrieved bio-geophysical parameters and their accuracy
• Make recommendations for algorithm development and new products
• Support the preparation for ESA and Third Parties full-pol missions exploitation (BIOMASS, NOVASAR-S, RCM, SAOCOM, TerraSAR-L etc.)
• Present innovative polarimetric applications and ideas for future polarimetric mission concepts
• Report on the status of POLinSAR 2017 recommendations
