Training sessions

A new hands-on training session focusing on Sentinel data processing and applications is organised in Dublin, Ireland, on 28 and 29 March 2019. During this two-day course, participants will be shown the capabilities offered by the RUS environment, and in

Earthquakes occur very often worldwide, especially in volcanic regions like Hawaii. They can be caused by tectonic faults, by the movement of magma in volcanoes (volcano tectonic earthquakes) and be related to dike intrusion. On 4 May 2018, an earthquake triggered

A closed training session is organised as part of the Joint Research Center (JRC) activities, where participants will become familiar with cloud computing and gain hands-on experience on the use of RUS Copernicus Virtual Machines for Earth Observation projects, exploiting

The Urban Heat Island (UHI) phenomenon is one example of the effect of urban areas in the local climate. This effect mainly consists of the heating of urban zones in comparison to their non-urbanized surroundings. The atmospheric air temperature of

Forests cover almost a third of world’s land surface, representing one of the most important ecosystems in our planet and a fundamental element to fight climate change. Moreover, forests create natural habitat to a large variegate of flora and fauna

A 2 full day training session is organised by RUS and the Technical University of Denmark/DTU Space in Copenhagen, Denmark, on 13 and 14 December 2018. The main goal of this session is to create theoretical and practical competences on SAR data

Greenland ice sheet is the second largest ice mass on Earth. As climate changes, the ice sheet surface melt is increasing and more and more fresh-water flows to the ocean, contributing to the global sea-level rise. Glacier velocity is a

A face-to-face training session is organised in the frame of the 12th International Conference of the African Association of Remote Sensing of the Environment (AARSE 2018) entitled “Earth Observations and Geospatial Science in Service of Sustainable Development Goals“. The conference

As the world is facing a large increase in population, reliable information on urban areas is required to assist and help in the decision-making process. Different methods can be used to gather this information but satellite Earth observation offers a
