Sentinel-1 (S1) of the European Copernicus Program provide consistent global cloud-independent synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imagery. However, there is a strong reluctance to use SAR data because of its complexity. Combined with the vast amount of data, S1 is out of reach for many stakeholders that could benefit from its monitoring potential. This project aims to overcome these technical challenges and subjective reluctance by providing attractive, easy-to-use “Advanced Sentinel-1 Analysis Ready Data” (ASARD) imagery. The main objective is to incite especially African users to include S1 data in their operations and thereby support the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
