ALOS Mosaics
Jul-2018
| Global 25m resolutions PALSAR-2/PALSAR mosaic and forest/non-forest map are free and open dataset generated by applying JAXA's powerful processing and sophisticated analysis method/techniques to a lot of images obtained with Japanese L-band Synthetic Aperture Radars (PALSAR and PALSAR-2) on Advanced Land Observing Satellite (ALOS) and Advanced Land Observing Satellite-2 (ALOS-2).

JERS-1 SAR Level 1 Precision Image
Jan-1998
| JERS-1 was a radar/optical mission led by NASDA (now JAXA). The overall objectives were
the generation of global data sets with SAR and OPS sensors aimed at surveying
resources, establishing an integrated EO system, and verifying instrument/system
performances. The collection is composed of the data acquired by Fucino and Kiruna ESA ground stations, and data is made accesible via the TPM scheme. Read more
