The VH-RODA (Very High-resolution Radar & Optical Data Assessment) Workshops serie provide an open forum (for the new space, commercial and institutional space sectors) to present and discuss about the current status and future developments related to Earth Observation (EO) data quality, calibration and validation of space-borne very high-resolution SAR, Optical, and, for the first time, atmospheric constellations, sensors and data products, with a dedicated focus on commercial EO data providers and related Cal/Val activities, synergies between optical, SAR and atmospheric communities, presentation of standards and best practices for data quality.
The VH-RODA community is invited to gather online on the Padlet platform to participate and contribute by sharing ideas, asking questions, providing answers, and exchanging thoughts. This space is designed to foster active engagement and collaboration in support of VH-RODA and the scientific community. Seed questions will be shared by the committee to trigger the discussion and ideas exchanges. The Padlet platform will be accessible before, during, and after the workshop to support ongoing discussions and knowledge sharing.
VH-RODA Workshops serie is in place since 2019. The activities are conducted in synergy with the USGS JACIE United States Geological Survey - Joint Agency Commercial Imagery Evaluation), both sharing the same aims to define best practices for EO data calibration and validation.
