EUSAR

I went to EUSAR 2016 and presented work on forest parameter retrieval and topography mapping from alternating bistatic TanDEM-X data. Unfortunately there is a mistake in the paper that is published in the proceedings (wrong figure was included), but you can find a better version of the paper here.

The conference itself was very good, compact and full of interesting presentation. I’m looking forward to EUSAR 2018!

SRS-meeting

Between 16 and 17 March, our group participated in the annual SRS meeting. SRS stands for Svenska Rymdforskares Samarbetsgrupp, which is a group that gathers Swedish Space researchers. Our PhD students Erik and Albert presented two excellent posters, one summarising some of the results on forest biomass and canopy cover estimation from SAR tomography, and one presenting our new experiment BorealScat, which will be a tower radar experiment in a forest outside Skövde. Moreover, Henrik Persson presented a poster summarising some of our TanDEM-X results.

Conferences 2016

2016 will be a good year for conferences. The bi-annual ESA Living Planet Symposium and EUSAR will be held in Prag, Czech Republic in early May and Hamburg, Germany, in early June, respectively. Our group will be well-represented at both conferences. The topics presented by me and my colleagues will cover the BorealScat campaign (a radar tower experiment that we are working on), forest parameter estimation from TanDEM-X data (including the ForMap-tool, which I plan to develop in the nearest future), and our work within future P- and L-band forestry satellite projects, BIOMASS and SAOCOM-CS. The abstracts submitted to these conferences will soon be made available here.

Also, the 2016 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium (IGARSS) will take place in Beijing, China, in mid-July. We will be represented at IGARSS as well.

Welcome!

Hello and welcome to my home page. I am a researcher at Chalmers University of Technology in Gothenburg, Sweden, where I work with radar remote sensing of forests. On this page, you can find a blog and a list of publications.

The page is still under development but the list of publications is kept up-to-date.
