EPOS TCS 12 2022 Satellite

May 2022

Synthesis

from AI

The SATELLITE DATA TCS within the EPOS framework leverages satellite radar data to monitor Earth’s surface deformation with centimeter precision, enabling advanced studies of tectonic processes and geodynamic phenomena. By integrating InSAR data and harmonizing measurements from agencies like ESA, the initiative provides 8 Data, Data Products, Software and Services (DDSS) and a Community Portal (Geohazards Exploitation Platform) for user-friendly data visualization. These efforts support the solid Earth science community in understanding high-impact events such as earthquakes, landslides, and volcanic activity, while fostering collaboration across national and international space agencies.
