JAXA Earth Observation Research Center (EORC) conducts the Earth science research and application research using the data acquired by Earth observation satellites.
JAXA established the Earth Observation Research Center in April 1995 and the Satellite Applications and Operations Center (then- Satellite Applications and Promotion Center) in May 2006. As a core agency to develop Earth observation satellites in Japan, we are promoting Earth observation, data analysis and application research. By monitoring the earth environment from the space, we are aiming to contribute to strengthening national resilience including disaster management and addressing global challenges.
The ALOS mission features a systematic observation strategy. The observation strategy is developed by JAXA EORC and aims to provide spatially and temporally consistent, multi-seasonal global coverage, on a repetitive basis, with all three sensors, during the life-time of the ALOS satellite.
