Scientific collaboration with WSL & UZH

On October 15, we had a meeting with the University of Zurich/Remote Sensing Laboratories (UZH/RSL), with David Small and Michael Schaepman, to define Sentinel-1 Analysis Ready Data. Two UNIGE/GRID team members will go to Zurich in early November to discuss and initiate S1 data ingestion.

On October 16-17, we had the visit of Charlotte Steinmeier, Christian Ginzler and Achilleas Psomas from the Swiss Federal Institute for Forest, Snow and Landscape Research (WSL). We tested their algorithm on drought in our Swiss Data Cube. It works very well! We are running it on both Landsat and Sentinel 2 data.

The collaboration with WSL was featured on Sunday 21st October on the Swiss Television in “Mise au Point” [RTS1]
