Footprint Modeling Expert-Workshop (Innsbruck – Austria) – February 2017

Footprint Modelling Expert-Workshop

The aim of this workshop is the development of a footprint tool for optimal placement of fixed spectrometers and for combination of EC measurements with UAV-based spectral data. The footprint tool developed by Prof. N. Kljun (http://footprint.kljun.net) will be extended to allow for simple integration of remote sensing information from Modis and possibly Sentinel 2. This will aim at selecting optimal sensor placement for continuous spectral information acquisition at Eddy Covariance sites. The tool will be in a form of a website to make it available to the community. The workshop will take place at the University of Innsbruck from 13.02.17 to 16.02.17.
