This team is focused on the development and application of remote sensing, data collection and visualisation technologies to support a wide range of geoscience applications.

The technologies include:

photogrammetric and map production systems
satellite radar interferometry for geohazard measurement
immersive 3D visualisation for Virtual Field Reconnaissance (GeoVisionary)
satellite and airborne data tailored to particular applications across the globe and other planets.
Digital Field Data Capture (DFDC)
an integrated workflow for geoscientific surveying and visualisation (SIGMA)

Geovisionary 3D visualisation for virtual field reconnaissance as featured on Britain from Above, presented by Andrew Marr. I'm outside the UK, why can't I access some clips?

The technologies are based on a wide range of data including:

Landsat, ASTER and Radarsat for UK and international projects
national baseline data, such as aerial photography and elevation models of the UK
airborne hyperspectral for mineral waste mapping and future CO₂ storage monitoring
Mars Orbiter Laser Altimeter (MOLA) terrain models with THEMIS day and night thermal imagery
