The contribution of the European Space Agency to the ALOS PRISM- AVNIR-2 commissioning phase
This paper was presented at IGARSS 2007 (23-27 July 2007 - Barcelona, Spain). It summarizes the strategy that ESA adopted to define and implement a data verification plan for mission operated by foreign nations, classified as so called ESA Third Party Missions.

Ship trails in the Bay of Biscay observed using PROBA-V imagery
Ship trails have been perceived as convincing evidence of aerosol-cloud interaction. Ship emissions have been proven to contribute by about 1.9% and 2.9% to the increase in the global total and fine-mode aerosol optical thickness (AOT) respectively over a five year period (Peters et al. 20212).

This is the second version (V2) of the Validation Report for the PV-LAC coastal activities.
Document - General Reference
PV-LAC-COAST-SR-v1.1.pdf
In the frame of the PV-LAC project a prototype code has been developed, tested and validated for the atmospheric correction (A/C) and turbidity retrieval of PROBA-V data over turbid coastal areas.
Document - General Reference
PV-LAC-COAST-RBD-v1-1.pdf
The aim of this document is to make a critical review of the algorithms for TSM retrieval and atmospheric correction in turbid coastal waters, to identify the most suitable method (TSM and A/C method) for PROBA-V, to define the validation approach (including identification of the validation data and test sites) and to assess the utility and benefits of 100m coastal products through interaction with the user community.
Activity - Instrument characterisation and algorithm studies
