What’s
next?
The Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM), successfully carried
out during February 2000, as completed a cycle on Earth remote sensing,
cycle started in 1994 with SRL-1 and SRL-2 missions.
From these missions a huge amount of data is now available, and
such data can be very precious for scientific community. Aim of
the workshop is to allow research groups to illustrate their research
activities, actual and possible use of SRL-1/SRL-2/SRTM data, and
to highlight equirements of scientific community.
