CAMPAIGNS
FINESSE at Andøya 2023
2023
The Andøya campaign was undertaken in support of the Earth Explorer 9 Far-infrared Outgoing Radiation Understanding and Monitoring (FORUM) mission.
HydroSoil
2020
The main objective of HydroSoil was to demonstrate the retrieval of soil moisture and vegetation parameters in an agricultural field under controlled conditions using a ground-based fully-polarimetric SAR instrument (GB-PolSAR).
FLEXSense 2019
2019
The FLEXSense 2019 campaign activities were undertaken in Germany and Italy with the goal of providing a complete set of high-resolution experimental data, including all relevant elements required for the preparation of the FLEX satellite mission.
SARSimHT
2019
The main objective of “SARSimHT – Airborne SAR experiment to simulate Hydroterra data” was to demonstrate the image formation process of Hydroterra through the exploitation of a repeat-pass hyper-temporal airborne SAR image stack acquired over short time intervals representative of the Hydroterra mission.
SARSense 2019
2019
The SARSense campaign in the Jülich area (Germany) in summer 2019 was performed to support the ESA Copernicus high priority mission ROSE-L.
PhotoProxy 2019
2019
The Photosynthetic-Proxy Experiment campaign address relevant open aspects that are related to the quantitative assessment of vegetation photosynthesis and vegetation stress from space.
FLEXSense 2018
2018
The 2018 Fluorescence Explorer Sense (FLEXSense) campaign combined various field activities in preparation for the FLEX satellite mission.
BelSAR 2018
2018
The BelSAR project intended to carry out an airborne campaign for SAR bistatic interferometric measurements at L-band and full polarisation, over a test site in Belgium.
AROMAT-II
2015 - 2016
This campaign covers the fields of atmospheric composition: NO2, SO2, aerosols, over Romania (Bucharest and Turceni) and Germany (Berlin).
SoyFLEX II 2016
2016
The SoyFLEX II experiment was a repetition of an experiment that took place during the 2015 campaign in Germany.
AfriSAR 2015
2015
During the AfriSAR 2015 campaign, shared between ONERA (dry season, July 2015) and DLR (wet season 2016), Pol-InSAR and TomoSAR airborne data set were collected over four test sites over Africa, therefore covering different forest structures.
FLEX EU 2014
2014
The FLEX-EU Campaign was carried out in 2014 over an agricultural area around Jülich, Germany, Latisana, Italy and forest sites in Czech Republic
COMEX
2014
The COMEX campaign supports the mission definition of CarbonSat and HyspIRI by providing representative airborne remote sensing data ‐ MAMAP for CarbonSat.
FLEX-US
2013
The primary goal of the 2013 joint ESA/NASA airborne campaign was to record an unprecedented FLEX-like dataset containing maps of sun-induced fluorescence, hyperspectral reflectance, surface temperature, and canopy structure.
HYFLEX
2012
This HYFLEX campaign aimed to deliver maps of sun-induced fluorescence recorded from airborne measurements using the approaches of the spaceborne FLEX mission.
ROVE (1975-1981)
2012
The Dutch research team ROVE (Radar Observation on Vegetation), funded by the remote sensing organization NIWARS, started in 1974 to investigate the scattering of microwaves by crops and soils, in order to help interpretation of radar imagery.
BioSAR 2010
2010
The BioSAR-3 (BioSAR 2010) campaign was specifically planned and implemented to investigate possibilities for a future spaceborne P-band polarimetric and interferometric SAR with a life-time of multiple years.
CoSMOS 2005, 2007, 2008, 2010
2005 - 2010
The Campaign for Validating the Operation of SMOS (coSMOS) was designed to acquire SMOS-like data so that the algorithms were fine-tuned and properly validated before the launch of SMOS mission in 2007.
BioSAR 2008
2008
The main objective of BioSAR-2 (BioSAR 2008) campaign was to record SAR data over boreal forests with topographic effects to investigate the effect on biomass retrieval.
BioSAR 2007
2007
The BioSAR campaign aimed to support geophysical algorithm development, calibration/validation and the simulation of future spaceborne Earth Observation missions.
