Some Research and Applications in the CSIRO (Australia) Earth Observation Centre on Scene Brightness Due to BRDF

  • Chapter
Observing Land from Space: Science, Customers and Technology

Part of the book series: Advances in Global Change Research ((AGLO,volume 4))

Abstract

A range of Earth Observation research activities in CSIRO (Australia) are promoted and coordinated through a unit called the CSIRO Earth Observation Centre (EOC, see http://www.eoc.csiro.au ). The EOC has been formed to coordinate CSIRO Earth Observation activities in generic science. It is developing and supporting activities aimed at establishing coordinated validation missions, and calibration and validation sites in Australia to develop long term high quality data and well characterized land surface parameters. The sites provide potential validation for a range of products of satellite global measurements programs.
