The Satellite Image Data Service is a unique spatial data resource
which can be used for a wide range of applications within many disciplines.
It currently hosts four types of satellite data, the only service in the UK
to provide academia with this combination of remotely sensed imagery:
-
Environment Remote Sensing (ERS) 1 & 2 Radar data
used for change detection analysis, assessing coherence between images of
the same geographic extent and providing information about land cover
-
Landsat 4, 5 and 7 Thematic Mapper imagery used in the
study of the marine environments, water resources, land use, geology,
agriculture and forestry monitoring Search for content on
all of the JISC services websites
-
SPOT Applied in a similar way as Landsat, mainly
concentrating on land use mapping and digital terrain modeling
-
ENVISAT Advanced Synthetic Aperture Radar (ASAR)
providing enhanced features such as various polarisations and modes of
imagery. Provides data for both regional and local studies for
applications such as land cover, subsidence and geomorphology
The SIDS also provides elevational data such as the 25m Landmap DEM,
georeferenced SRTM data and the Kinematic GPS survey.
Satellite data can now be explored through an interactive web map
interface.
The Image Processing Course for Remote Sensing course is available online
