Abstract
  • The Italian and European territory with its high spatial variability frequently does non highlight the whole information content of satellite multispectral images. Therefore airborne remote sensing is a focal branch to study and monitor natural and anthropic phenomena at higher spatial scale. In these sectors of research most applications require both a high spatial and spectral resolution to retrieve quantitative information from remotely sensed data provided primarily by airborne platforms. For that reason airborne remote sensing is a challenging frontier of research to measure environmental variables and to develop and test new sensors which could represent the next space borne generation systems.The current airborne sensor scenario presents a wide variety of systems requiring specific analysis methodologies which need to be continuously updated to meet ongoing advances in new sensors technology. In this framework the airborne remote sensing scientific community is very sensitive to this rapid technological evolution demanding new calibration/processing procedures. This “Airborne Remote Sensing for Geophysical and Environmental Application” meeting represented the first occasion to gather the national and European community involved in airborne remote sensing, and willing to present either scientific results or new technologies. The workshop’s objective was to combine and compare the experience of the scientific communities involved in airborne sensors development, system management and analysis of optical remote sensing data. The workshop was focus on defining the scientific requirements and the improvement of systems efficiency, data quality, geophysical and environmental applications.The workshop was held in three days with six plenary and parallel sessions attended by more than 200 researchers belonging to the national and the international community and presenting of about 80 applications papers on the airborne systems operative in the international framework. The meeting sessions covered the following topics: ü Data calibration and validation; ü Airborne platforms, sensor systems and satellite: synergy; ü Airborne platforms, sensors systems and satellite: campaigns; ü Remote sensing of atmosphere; ü Remote sensing of land surface and vegetation; ü Remote sensing of land surface geology; ü Remote sensing of coastal and inlands waters; ü Remote sensing of urban and archaeological areas. The work of each session was opened by keynote speaker (from ESA, ASI, JPL University of Valencia and Extremadura, DLR, CNRS, private companies like AIG) who presented the most outstanding applications of airborne remote sensing within the topic of the session.Due to the high scientific value of the research papers, most of them were reviewed by the workshop scientific committee to be published in this special issue of Annals of Geophysics as a contribution to be research community to improve systems efficiency, data quality, and geophysical and environmental applications. Following thi challenging experience, the organizers hope for further opportunities to meet and exchange vies in the near future. The editors are very grateful to Mario Apice (President’s Bureau, CNR headquarter), Nicola Afflitto (CNR,IMAA), Carla Oriana De Rocchis (CNR, IIA-LARA), Alberto Meroni (RSI Italia) and Angela Maria Mirabelli (CNR, IIA-LARA) for their significant contribution within the Organizing Committee. The workshop has been financially supported by the Italian Association of Remote Sensing (AIT), Aquater ApA, CNR IIA, CNR IMAA, Compagnia Generale Ripresearee (CGR), INGV, Gruppo Vitrociset SpA and RSI Italia srl. The editors also wish to thand ASITA for having participated in this event from an organizational view point. (literal)
