AI-generated Abstract
ICEWATCH is a collaborative project between the Russian Space Agency (RKA) and the European Space Agency (ESA) aimed at enhancing sea ice monitoring in the Northern Sea Route (NSR) through satellite radar technology. The project leverages the use of ESA ERS SAR and RKA Okean SLR data to support ice navigation, offshore industry, and environmental studies. Initial findings indicate a positive outlook for the integration of SAR data into Russian ice monitoring services, driven by user requirements and the practical necessity for accurate ice forecasting in relation to maritime activities and climate change monitoring.
