Radar vision
Discover how Copernicus Sentinel-1 mission uses its radar to provide an all-weather, day-and-night supply of imagery of Earth’s surface.
Helping to manage water
Discover how satellites can help collecting information on water resources at over large areas.
Learn about sea level
Learn how climate change is causing our seas to rise and how satellites have been measuring the height of the sea surface systematically since 1992.
Land-use change
Satellite images enable us to document changes in land use very precisely. Discover how satellites provide information about land use on a global scale. Video by ESERO Germany (in English).
The Electromagnetic Spectrum – Introduction
Learn about the electromagnetic spectrum and how satellites can see the invisible. Video by ESERO Germany (in English).
The Electromagnetic Spectrum – Advanced
Explore what satellites can see with their sensors and learn about the properties of the electromagnetic waves. Video by ESERO Germany (in English).
Images from Space
Learn how satellites can help us monitoring our planet. Video by ESERO Germany (in English).
The spatial resolution
The observation of our planet with the help of satellites largely depends on the different characteristics of their sensors. The spatial resolution, that is explained in this video, is one of these characteristics. Video by ESERO Germany (in English).
Causes and Consequences
In this short video, Dr Natalie Douglas, a climate scientist, explains what could be some of the causes and consequences of climate change and why a 0.5 degree of temperature difference can be so important. Natalie is a Teaching and Research Fellow at the University of Surrey and is collaborating with us on the Climate […]
What are the differences
In this short video, Dr Natalie Douglas, a climate scientist, explains the difference between weather, climate variability and climate change. Natalie is a Teaching and Research Fellow at the University of Surrey and is collaborating with us on the Climate Detectives school project. This video is part of the “meet the scientist” webinar organised by […]
