The European Space Agency (ESA) is organising an advanced Remote Sensing Training Course from 11-15 September, 2017 in Porto, Portugal.  The course is devoted to training the next generation of Earth Observation (EO) scientists to exploit data from ESA and operational EO Missions (e.g. Copernicus Sentinels) for science and application development. Research scientists and students from European countries and Canada are invited to apply to the 5-day course, and participants from all other countries are welcome to apply  but are subject to availability.
The course will include theoretical principles and application of ocean colour radiometry, infrared and passive microwave radiometry, biogeochemical, sea surface temperature, and sea surface salinity retrievals; Â theoretical principles and application of synthetic aperture radar and radar altimetry; and hands-on exercises using SAR, optical, infrared, passive microwave, and altimeter data, tools/toolboxes and methods for the exploitation of EO satellite data in synergy over the ocean. Â For further details see the full announcement on the ESA website.
