Validating Copernicus Sentinel data using Fiducial Reference Measurement

Validating Copernicus Sentinel data using Fiducial Reference Measurement
20 - 21 June 2017
A satellite validation international workshop will be held in Plymouth, UK, from 20 to 21 June 2017.
The Copernicus Sentinel Atlantic Meridional Transect Fiducial Reference Measurements workshop will serve as a forum for discussing the performance of Sentinel -1, -2 and -3 at retrieving ocean colour, sea surface temperature and information about upper ocean dynamics in the open ocean and coastal environments.It will identify potential strategies for the validation of Sentinel missions in the future.
The workshop should be beneficial to anyone with an interest in the validation of satellite data; four main themes will be addressed:
- Fiducial Reference Measurement methods and protocols
- Ocean Colour validation
- Sea Surface Temperature validation
- Validation of upper ocean dynamics
- A new release of the Copernicus Sentinel Operations Dashboard integrated with Sentinel Online
- Global Space Conference on Climate Change to highlight value of Copernicus Sentinels
- Copernicus Sentinel-3B unavailability notice for SRAL annual calibration planned on 24 May 2023
- Copernicus Sentinel-3B unavailability notice due to In-Plane Manoeuvre planned on 11 May 2023
- Copernicus Sentinel-2B unavailability notice on 08 May 2023
