ESA EXPRO+ S2S3 Model Snow - Development and Demonstration of Synergistic Snow Products from Optical Sensors Data and Snow Models (2017 - 2019)

The main objectives of this project are to (i) investigate the synergistic use for Sentinel-2 and Sentinel-3 data for seasonal snow monitoring, (ii) develop a snow pack models driven by meteorological parameters to generate cloud cleared snow extent products (i.e. observation gaps caused by clouds are filled) from optical satellite data, and (iii) demonstrate the synergistic use of the snow pack model and the snow extent products from Sentinel-2 and Sentinel-3 data.
