Research

Center for Environmental Remote Sensing, CEReS, is contributing to the science community of environmental studies through archiving, evaluating, and disseminating satellite- and ground-based remote sensing data since its establishment as a national cooperative research center in 1995. Currently, the major research projects of CEReS are implemented in line with the following five research programs, namely, (Program 1) Innovation in Remote Sensing Technology and Algorithm, (Program 2) Environmental Diagnostics, (Program 3) Environmental Prediction, (Program 4) Integrative Analysis, Big Data Analysis, and (Program 5) Implementation of Remote Sensing in Society.
