OSCAR : looking at continental surfaces with radar altimetry, Proc. of the Symposium of 15 Years of Progress in Radar Altimetry, Venice, Italy, 13-18 March 2006, ESA SP-614.
The OSCAR project (observing continental surfaces with radaraltimetry) intends to develop applications of the radar altimetry outside the ocean. It is based mainly on TOPEX, ERS and ENVISAT data. We processed the whole ERS2 mission dataset from WAP to retracked level using an equivalent of the ICE2 retracking procedure used on ENVISAT groundsegment. In addition to the ice caps, we show here applications to continental surfaces, snow depth survey, sea ice, inundated surfaces, lakes, rivers and ocean coastal zones.
