  1. The COSMO-SkyMed Experience Overview Maria Libera Battagliere On behalf of Alessandro COLETTA ITALIAN SPACE AGENCY Workshop ESRIN October, 11-12 2012 Models for ScientificExploitation of EO Data

  2. FIRST CONSTELLATION SATELLITES LAUNCH DATES 25 OCT. - 2008 COSMO-3 5 NOV. - 2010 COSMO-4 8 JUN. - 2007 COSMO-1 9 DEC. - 2007 COSMO-2 The constellationwascompletedat the end of 2010 and becamefullyoperational in April 2011.

  3. 180° COSMO-1 COSMO-1 COSMO-1 • 4 SAR SATELLITES CONSTELLATION • SENSOR X-BAND SAR (9.6 GHz) • BANDWIDTH 400 MHz 90° 180° 180° • HEIGHT 619.6 Km • ORBIT SSO COSMO-4 90° 67.5° • INCLINATION 97.8° 67.5° COSMO-3 • ORBITAL PERIOD ~ 97 m COSMO-3 COSMO-2 COSMO-2 COSMO-2 FIRST CONSTELLATION DEPLOYMENT STRATEGY TANDEM-LIKE OPERATIONAL CONFIGURATION

  4. EACH SAR SATELLITE CAN ACQUIRE UP TO 1800 IMAGES / DAY IMAGING CAPABILITY 450 IMAGES/DAY REVISIT TIME 4 SATELLITES MAX < 12h (worst case) PRODUCTS CURRENTLY THE DATA VOLUME IS 475 ACQUISITIONS/DAY AT THE C-UGS. • Worldwide global coverage • All weather night/day acquisitions • Fast response • Fast large/long area mapping • Accurate information frequently updated • Interferometric revisit (1 day) • Motion tracking Any future needs can be satisfied upgrading both data archives and processing chains as required by the Users needs.

  5. MULTI-MODE ACQUISITION CAPABILITY SPOTLIGHT 10 Km X 10 Km 1 m Resol. STRIPMAP - HIMAGE 40 Km X 40 Km 3 m Resol. STRIPMAP – PING PONG 30 Km X 30 Km 15 m Resol. SCANSAR WIDE 100 Km X 100 Km 30 m Resol. SCANSAR HUGE 200 Km X 200 Km 100 m Resol. WIDE FIELD NARROW FIELD

  7. COSMO-SkyMed SECOND GENERATION (CSG)

  8. COSMO-SkyMed 2nd GENERATION 4 OPERATIONAL SATELLITES 2007 2011 … 2015 >2023 Launch of COSMO-SkyMed 1 COSMO-SkyMed 4 operative DEPLOYMENT SCENARIO AND PROSPECTIVE CSG will provide operational continuity until 2023. The first CSG satellite launch is planned in mid 2015.

  9. MAIN IMPROVEMENTS (1/2) Spatial resolution Up to 2 times better than COSMO-SkyMed(*) Full polarimetric capability DUAL-pol currently available in Ping-Pongon COSMO-SkyMed • Improved operational profiles • CSK =450products/day/satellite • CSG = 520ca. products/day/satellite (equivalent to 1000 ca. CSK products) Improved planning concept and processing capabilities (*) For specific acquisition modes

  10. COSMO-SkyMed EXPLOITATION OVERVIEW

  11. ALL THE OTHERS TWO MACRO-CLASSES INSTITUTIONAL USERS COMMERCIAL USERS ACCESSING THE SYSTEM • INSTITUTIONAL USERS • NATIONAL& INTERNATIONAL AGREEMENTS • ANNOUNCEMENT OF OPPORTUNITY • ASI THEMATIC PROJECTS (PILOT PROJECTS) • INTERFEROMETRIC MISSION • BACKGROUND MISSION • INSTITUTIONAL REQUEST “ON DEMAND”

  12. ASI supports the INSTITUTIONAL (incl. SCIENTIFIC)data exploitation www.cosmo-skymed.it www.e-geos.it IF REQUESTED INSTITUTIONAL USERS COMMERCIAL USERS e-GEOS supports the COMMERCIAL data exploitation ACCESSING THE SYSTEM

  13. INTERNATIONAL COOPERATIONS AND • NATIONAL/INTERNATIONAL AGREEMENTS In 2009 a Memorandum of Understanding was signed between ASI and JAXA concerning the feasibility study and joint research activity for mutual cooperation in the satellite disaster monitoring. ORFEO System: Optical and Radar Federated Earth Observation. In 2001 an intergovernmental agreement was signed during the Turin meeting. ORFEO is an Earth observation Dual space system, composed by an optical component, Pleiades and a radar component, COSMO-SkyMed. SIASGE: Sistema Italo-Argentino di Satelliti per la gestione delle Emergenze/Italian-Argentinian satellite system for emergency management). In 2000, ASI signed a cooperative agreement with CONAE, Argentina’s Space Agency. The system is composed by the Italian COSMO-SkyMed Constellation and two Argentinian satellites with radar in L-Band. National Department of CivilianProtection: emergency management, analysis of the landstability, etc.

  14. KICK-OFF Feb 2010 • ANNOUNCEMENT OF OPPORTUNITY • In May 2007, the Italian Space Agency issued an Announcement of Opportunity in order to promote the COSMO-SkyMed data exploitation. • AO identifiedfourmainobjectives: • SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH AND APPLICATIONS IN THE FIELD OF EARTH OBSERVATION • DEVELOPMENT AND VALIDATION OF GEOPHYSICAL PRODUCTS • DEMONSTRATION OF APPLICATIONS CONSIDERED RELEVANT WITHIN THE GMES (Global Environment Monitoring and Securety) and GEO (Group of Earth Observation) • NEW IDEAS FOR THE USE OF THE CONSTELLATION

  15. AO Projects: https://eopi.asi.it About 170 Selected Projects 27 Italian Projects funded by ASI > 40 Nations ~ 600 Scientists AO Projects Geo Distribution: All over the world with about 50% in Europe Main Topics: Forestry Hydrology Topographic mapping Water pollution Volcanology Floods Fires Coastal Processes Seismology Landslides Agriculture Ocean and Ice

  16. Announcement of Opportunity: global trend KICK-OFF Feb 2010 End of Projects August 2012

  17. Volcanoes SRV Volcanic Risk System ASI PILOT PROJECTS (1/2) using COSMO-SkyMed data Floods OPERA Civilian Protection against Floods Landslides MORFEO Monitoring of Landslide Hazard with EO ata and Techniques Fires SIGRI Integrated System for Fires Hazard Management Oil Spill PRIMI Pilot Project for Hydrocarbon Sea Pollution

  18. SISMA Seismic Information System for Monitoring and Alert Seismic Risk SIASGE XL Exploitation of SIASGE ASI-CONAE MISSION – S/W prototype development for products generation SAR X+L Products SIGRIS Space Observation System for Seismic Risk Management QUITSAT Air Quality/Environment Monitoring Environmentmonitoring ASI PILOT PROJECTS (2/2) using COSMO-SkyMed data PROSA Precipitation evaluation by integration of Meteo-models, Satellite and Ground-based Data Now-casting

  19. MAPPING: ITALY STRIPMAP MOSAIC USE OF 4 SATELLITES 16 DAYS PASSAGES (INTERFEROMETRIC ACQUIS.) ASC./DESC. PASSAGES

  20. COSMO-SkyMed BACKGROUND MISSION • Create anarchive of images for interferometricapplications • Maximize the system exploitationduring the operationlifetime of the constellation • Started in May 2011 Some of the main targets of the COSMO- SkyMed Background Mission:

  21. Sharing of exploitation results • 2 National Workshops organized by ASI (Matera in February-2011 and Roma in March 2012) dedicated to AO results. • About 100 publications considering papers and presentations at workshop/congress and technical notes/publications on specilized Earth Observations Journals. • Luigi DINI

  22. Lessonslearned • PROBLEMS • Excessive duration of the AO initial phase (preliminary investigation/inquiry) . • Impossibility to apply after the closure of the call for proposals • Acquisition conflicts • SUGGESTIONS • An open call for Announcement of Opportunity • Selection of different test sites to make an easier acquisition planning (conflicts reduction) • Requests harmonization trhought subscription mechanism • Maximize the archive data exploitation
