The ESA-funded project GlobCurrent is organising a user consultation “Observing surface currents from space”, 12-13 November at the Plymouth Marine Laboratory. The meeting will steer the development of new ocean surface current products derived from a variety of satellite measurements. This User Consultation Meeting offers a preview of early work from the first year of the project and an opportunity to influence the future development through evaluation of preliminary products, clarification of user requirements and discussion of how the system will develop.
GlobCurrent aims to advance the quantitative estimation of ocean surface currents from satellite sensor synergy and to demonstrate the impact and advancements through user-led scientific, operational and commercial applications. This in turn, will highlight the advantages of satellite approaches and increase the uptake and exploitation of satellite ocean current measurements. The GlobCurrent project is funded by the Data User Element, which is a programmatic element of the 4th period of the European Space Agency’s Earth Observation Envelope Programme.
