TRE Altamira and GEORESEARCH: The SedInOut project

The SedInOut project

The collaboration with GEORESEARCH started more than one year ago with the launch of the InSAR Competence Center in Salzburg. The project is aimed at developing innovative InSAR applications based on cutting-edge technologies for monitoring alpine areas, which are particularly challenging for data analysis and interpretation. In 2019, inspired by the success of this cooperation,…
