The main themes of the workshop were:
- Wave mode processing algorithms, product validation and assimilation
- Ocean Wind applications
- Ocean Current applications
- Wave applications
- Ice applications
- Oil spill and ship detection
- Methodology and techniques
Objectives
The main objectives of the workshop were to:
- Provide a forum for ESA Principal Investigators to present results and status of AO and Cat-1 projects
- Provide a forum for scientific exchange and to assess the state-of-art in SAR Coastal and Marine Application
- Initiate and encourage close collaboration between individual research groups
- Formulate recommendations for algorithm and new products development
- To present ESA studies results on wind, wave and currents from SAR data
- Discuss the use of SAR data over Ocean and their assimilation into meteorological models
- Present SAR marine services developed under GMES framework
- Assess the available data ordering and analysis tools
- Report on progress/status of recommendations of SeaSAR 2006.
