Featured Coastal Landforms Observation Method: NISAR
Launching in 2025, the joint NASA/ISRO (Indian Space Research Organization) Synthetic Aperture Radar (NISAR) platform will create global maps to provide a better understanding of changes in Earth’s ecosystems, ice mass, vegetation biomass, sea level rise, ground water, and natural hazards.
The upcoming NISAR satellite mission is expected to add as much as 85 TB of data each day to the EOSDIS archive. The commercial cloud is being explored as a way to archive and disseminate this extremely high volume of data efficiently.
7 MIN READ
The NASA/Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) SAR (NISAR) project team has created sample products using JAXA ALOS-1 PALSAR data as a surrogate for NISAR.
This video features Day 1 of the NISAR ISRO Community Workshop held on Aug. 3, 2023. It includes an introduction to SAR, Vertex, InSAR, and HyP3.
Explore 25 tutorials that demonstrate how to use NISAR sample data in a GIS environment; using Panoply; and transforming the data using GDAL commands.
