ALOS-2 DATA INTEGRATION WITHIN A UNIFIED APPROACH TO THE MONITORING OF LANDSCAPE DEGRADATION PROCESSES AT CATCH-MENT SCALE

This report concerns the extension period for data down-load of the RA4 project with the same title, which was granted on 1/4/2016. This activity thus follows the final re-port for the proposal [1], which was submitted in 2017. During the report period, processing of the data already downloaded was finalized, and data on other test sites were downloaded, thanks to the extension of the image quota as-signed to the project. This report is therefore divided into two parts. We first summarize the results obtained by processing ALOS data over the Tavoliere plain in the Apulia Region, Southern It-aly. Then, we describe the data and the first, preliminary processing steps performed over the remaining test sites (the Zambesi river in Southern-East Africa, and the Hy-malayan glacier in the Gangdise Mountains, China).
