Environmental Remote Sensing and Spectroscopy Laboratory

A laboratory from the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC) studying fundamental and applied remote sensing

SpecLab exploits synergies between ground, airborne and satellite spectral observations to monitor ecosystems and provide information that help resolve the gap between different temporal and spatial scales. We aim to generate reliable input data for the formulation of ecosystem models and soil-atmosphere-vegetation models crucial to monitoring and predicting changes in the Earth system.

MAIN ACTIVITIES

Our main research interest is the proximal and remote sensing of vegetation developing and improving  products to estimate key vegetation variables within the context of global change and precision agriculture
