The COSMO-SkyMed System and its Applications
History of Earth observation: quick overview
Athens,
2002, seen
by SPOT-5
1957
On October 4,
1957, the Soviet
Union launched
Sputnik 1 , the
first artificial
satellite of Earth
in the history.
1960
1964
The TIROS Program
(Television Infrared
Observation Satellite) was
NASA's first experimental
step to determine if satellites
could be useful in the study
of the Earth. At that time, the
effectiveness of satellite
observations was still
unproven.
San Marco 1, also known
as San Marco A, was the
first Italian satellite, and
one of the earliest nonSoviet/US spacecraft.
It was the first of five as
part of the Italian-US San
Marco programme.
1986
SPOT (Satellite Pour
l’Observation de la
Terre) has been the first
of a series of
commercial highresolution optical Earth
observation satellites.
History of Earth Observation: quick overwiev
Late 1970s-early
1980s Italy
participates in ESA
remote sensing
programs, including
ERS 1, for radar
remote sensing
1978
1972
The development of
non-photographic
remote sensing
technology
progressed rapidly
after the first
mapping satellite,
Landsat 1, was put
in orbit in 1972. It
was equipped with a
new type of sensor
known as a
multispectral
scanner (MSS).
Use of radar sensor for
Earth observation
purposes was started by
NASA/JPL's Seasat
satellite, which carried
three different radar
sensors.
1957
The first SAR images were
generated at Michigan
University.
1991-95
ESA's two European Remote
Sensing (ERS) satellites,
ERS-1 and –2, were launched
into the same orbit in 1991
and 1995 respectively. Their
payloads included a synthetic
aperture imaging radar, radar
altimeter and instruments to
measure ocean surface
temperature and wind fields.
ERS-2 added an additional
sensor for atmospheric ozone
monitoring. The two satellites
acquired a combined data set
extending over two decades.
The largest
Italian
investment in
the field of the
Earth
Observation

challenging

built in Europe
Establishment of the Italian Space Agency
The Italian Space Agency was
founded in 1988. Its purpose was
to coordinate all of Italy's efforts
and investments in the space
sector that had begun in the
1960s.
A well consolidated industrial community
Italy is one of the leading countries in the EU in the aerospace industry
 Italy is the European Union's third largest space nation, and a founder member of the
European Space Agency (ESA)
 The space Italian industry is based on about 50 companies

4 Industrial Corporations (with Finmeccanica stockholders)
 Thales Alenia Space (47% of the global turnover)
 Telespazio
 Avio
 Finmeccanica Airborne and Space Systems Division (Selex Galileo)
 In the space sector, the incidence of the Italian industry in Europe is around the 14%
(third Country after Germany and France)

Around 5000 people working in the aerospace sector (8000-9000 units if related
operations and logistic activities are included).
 Leadership in different fields: scientific missions, RADAR for EO missions, scientifc
payloads and instruments, space propulsion, instruments for astrophysics,
telecommunication systems, operations.
 In the manufacturing of space systems exists a strong connection among National
Industry, Small-Medium Enterprises (SMEs) and Research Institutions.
«Centres of Excellence»
where
Research and Technological Development
is performed
 Italy has a strong tradition in
RTD activity together with a
robust synergy among scientific
community, governmental
institutions (i.e. ASI) and
national industries.
 The scientific community and
national industry reached an high
maturity level in different
application domains where Italy
plays a key role (such us):
 Space exploration.
 Earth Observation
Example: COSMO-SkyMED INSTITUTIONAL USERS
NATIONAL INSTITUTIONAL USERS
•REGIONS and LOCAL AUTORITIES (es. Valle D’Aosta, Piemonte, Sicilia, Arpa
Lombardia)
•UNIVERSITIES AND RESEARCH CENTERS ( es. PCM-DPC, CNR_Consiglio

ENEA-Agenzia Nazionale per le nuove tecnologie, l’energia e lo sviluppo
economico sostenibile, Università di Napoli, Politecnico di Bari, Sapienza
Università di Roma, Università di Pavia, Università del Piemonte Orientale,
Università di Milano, Università di Firenze, Università di Genova, Università di
Roma Tor Vergata, Politecnico di Milano, Università di Padova, Università di
Ferrara)
AT PRESENT TIME

EO users community and ASI’s Initiative
 The Italian Space Agency promotes Earth Observation applications,
related to themes such as the prediction, monitoring, management and
mitigation of natural hazards and anthropogenic hazards.
 For example, some specific and thematic projects were funded by ASI in
the past years: the approach generally followed is the development and
demonstration of prototype services, using available data from space
missions, in particular the COSMO-SkyMed mission.

VOLCANIC HAZARDS: Italy, together with Iceland, has the greatest
concentration of active volcanoes in Europe and it is one of the first
Country in the world for number of inhabitants exposed to volcanic
risk.
COSMO-SkyMed Background ASI/e-Geos
(starting from 2011)
AO-CSA
Characterizing volcano hazard in Latin America
Pennsylvania State University
The activity is focused on to use COSMO-SkyMed and RADARSAT-2 data to better
understand the relationship between volcanic eruptions and ground deformation at
volcanoes located in the areas of interest and in addition to improve understanding of the
complex processes that drive a magmatic system to eruption. The interferograms provided
from both sensors provide an essential tool for understanding how magma moves through
the subsurface over time providing clues for hazard assessment/risk mitigation from
volcanic eruptions, landslides, and earthquakes.
International Cooperations
48 Projects started in 2014 (duration: 2
years)
Almost 40% PIs from Canada and 60%
from Italy
Images/project: max 20
An example of successfully International
Cooperation is represented by the Joint call ASICSA to promote and explore the synergistic use
of C-band RADARSAT-2 and X-band COSMOSkyMed data to extend the range of parameters
observed and therewith to increase the
knowledge of the factors determining the
behaviour of the environment.

Conclusions
A general overview about the EO Italian community has been
provided showing some significant and successfull examples of
international cooperations in this field, basically based on the COSMO‐
SkyMed data exploitation.
These not exhaustive examples were presented with the aim to
provide a realistic representation of the actual ASI’s capabilities
and to show as Italy plays a key role in the EO national and
international context thanks to the invaluable amount of COSMO‐
SkyMed data .
Thank you for the attention
