Dear all, Pl. share this event details with your colleagues / friends Department of Electrical Engineering, IIT Madras presents a public lecture by Dr. Paul Rosen, sponsored by the IIT Madras Alumni Association, with technical co-sponsorship by the IEEE Madras Section: Title: The NASA-ISRO SAR (NISAR) Mission: An India-US partnership for monitoring a dynamic planet Speaker: Dr. Paul Rosen, Jet Propulsion Laboratory When: 5:30pm, 15 Nov. 2016 (Tuesday) Where: Central Lecture Theatre, IIT Madras (Google maps: http://goo.gl/QX9MJh) Abstract: The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) are developing NISAR, an Earth-orbiting science and applications mission to measure the changing Earth. The mission’s primary objectives are the study of land and ice deformation, and changes in ecosystems – biomass, agriculture, and wetlands – in areas of common interest to the US and Indian science and applications communities.This leads to over 1 petabyte of raw radar data acquired each year which expands by several factors after processing. This talk will discuss the nature of the science problems this mission is attempting to address with these spatially and temporally dense time series, the consequent mission design and technology approach, some of the challenges we face in optimizing a scientifically, programmatically, and politically complex mission, and some of the challenges and opportunities for scientific exploitation and discovery in this unique data set. Speaker bio: Paul Rosen is currently Project Scientist for the NASA-ISRO Synthetic Aperture Radar (NISAR) Mission at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory. From 2006-2012, he was the manager of the Radar Science and Engineering Section. His assignments at JPL have centered on scientific and engineering research and development of radar instruments and applications, particularly in the area of SAR interferometry. Dr. Rosen was a team leader on the Shuttle Radar Topography Mission, for which he received NASA's Exceptional Service Medal (2001) and NASA's Exceptional Achievement Medal (2002). Prior to JPL Dr. Rosen spent two years at Kanazawa University in Kanazawa, Japan studying wave propagation in the ionosphere. He received a PhD in Electrical Engineering from Stanford University working on Voyager 2 radio occultation of Saturn’s rings, and his M.S. and B.S in Electrical Engineering from University of Pennsylvania. Dr. Rosen is a visiting faculty member and lecturer at the Division of Geological and Planetary Sciences at Caltech, and has served on the UCLA Extension Program faculty. He is an IEEE Fellow, and currently serves on the IEEE Geoscience and Remote Sensing Society Administrative Committee.
