| Zusammenfassung |
| EAGLE2006 – an intensive field campaign for the advances in land surface
hydrometeorological processes – was carried out in the Netherlands from
8th to 18th June 2006, involving 16 institutions with in total 67
people from 16 different countries. In addition to the acquisition of
multi-angle and multi-sensor satellite data, several airborne instruments –
an optical imaging sensor, an imaging microwave radiometer, and a flux
airplane – were deployed and extensive ground measurements were conducted
over one grassland site at Cabauw and two forest sites at Loobos and
Speulderbos in the central part of the Netherlands. The generated data set
is both unique and urgently needed for the development and validation of
models and inversion algorithms for quantitative land surface parameter
estimation and land surface hydrometeorological process studies. EAGLE2006
was led by the Department of Water Resources of the International Institute
for Geo-Information Science and Earth Observation (ITC) and originated from
the combination of a number of initiatives supported by different funding
agencies. The objectives of the EAGLE2006 campaign were closely related to
the objectives of other European Space Agency (ESA) campaign activities
(SPARC2004, SEN2FLEX2005 and especially AGRISAR2006). However, one important
objective of the EAGLE2006 campaign is to build up a data base for the
investigation and validation of the retrieval of bio-geophysical parameters,
obtained at different radar frequencies (X-, C- and L-Band) and at
hyperspectral optical and thermal bands acquired simultaneously over
contrasting vegetated fields (forest and grassland). As such, all activities
were related to algorithm development for future satellite missions such as
the Sentinels and for validation of retrievals of land surface parameters
with optical and thermal and microwave sensors onboard current and future
satellite missions. This contribution describes the campaign objectives and
provides an overview of the airborne and field campaign dataset. This
dataset is available for scientific investigations and can be accessed on
the ESA Principal Investigator Portal http://eopi.esa.int/. |
