Presentation transcript:

RADARSAT Constellation  Evolution of the RADARSAT Program (i.e. 3 satellites – 32 minutes separation);  Average daily global access of land and oceans (daily revisit – 50m res.) & int. areas;  Focus on NRT needs expressed by marine operational end-users (ice, icebergs, wind and ocean features, illegal oil spills monitoring, vessel detection). CSA Supported Missions 3/5

CSA Supported Missions 4/5  Reliable communications in the high latitudes (North of 70º) to ensure:  Security  Sustainable Development  Support to Northern Communities  Air and Marine Navigation  Provide high temporal/spatial resolution meteorological data above 50º N in support of:  Numerical Weather Prediction  Environmental monitoring, emergency response  Climate monitoring Aurora Borealis PolarSAT (Polar Communication Weather) Mission Definition with User and Science Team

CSA Supported Missions 4/5 PolarSAT (Polar Communication Weather) Meteorological Coverage Communications Coverage  Architecture: Constellation of two satellites in HEO ( Molniya-type, 12 hours)  Orbit: Two planes with apogee over Atlantic and Pacific (TBC)  Payloads: Communications (Ka-band) and Meteorological payload suites on each satellite  Bus: Canadian SmallSat Bus  Ground segment: Based on existing Canadian infrastructure with potential addition of the Northern Ground Station  Operations: Government operated (TBC)  Launch: 2014 and 2015  Lifespan: 5 years-requirement, 7 years - goal  Partnership: Open for International and Public-Private Partnership

OUR ACTIVITIES: Coordination - Space Task Group Ensure the use of Canadian Space Technologies in IPY Science initiatives Guarantee fluid and continued availability and access to EO data from CSA supported missions Provide access to a federated international science community – all working under Canadian-endorsed science objectives (IPY Federal Program)

OUR ACTIVITIES: Contribution Arctic Science Archive Project (ASAP) Radarsat Antarctic Mapping Missions – 1997, 2000, 2007 Fine resolution of the Canadian polar region and the Arctic Archipelago (collected during the CIM, ) Max and Min ice extent Circum-polar Arctic snapshots from 2003 to … Thematically relevant dataset acquired over specific areas of interest (supersites) identified by the research communities Canadian Ice Service dataset acquired since 1996 Canadian Arctic land mass mosaics – summer and winter Canadian Interferometric Mission dataset

Phase 1 - Baseline Fine Mode. Northern Canadian complete coverage ( scenes)

Phase Arctic Basin ScanSAR Sea-Ice Snapshots (364 scenes)

Phase 3 - Arctic Super-sites (4038 scenes)

OUR ACTIVITIES: Contribution - New Acquisitions Antarctic pole to coast multi-polarisation imaging campaign; Antarctic pole hole (from 78 to 90° south) InSAR campaign; Greenland RADARSAT InSAR campaign since 2000; Second Canadian Interferometric Mission over Canadian Arctic; Arctic Ocean Snapshots on 3-day basis…
