  1. JAXA Agency Report~The Latest Status on “ALOS Kyoto & Carbon Initiative” CEOS Plenary Doc. 31 Satoko Horiyama MIURA JAXA 23rd CEOS Plenary I Phuket, Thailand I 3-5 December 2009

  2. The Kyoto & Carbon Initiative K&C produces the global SAR mosaics of 50 m resolution twice a year frequency High resolution PALSAR mosaic Left:2007:Japan island Right:2007:Indonesia, Sumatra, color composite • International collaborative project led by JAXA EORC. • Continuation of Global Rain Forest and Global Boreal Forest Mapping project . • Aims to support information needs posed by: • Multinational Environmental Conventions and Declarations: • UNFCCC Kyoto Protocol (Land Cover change); • Ramsar Treaty on Wetlands (wetland characteristics and disturbances); • UN Millenium Declaration & WSSD (water supply and watermanagement); • Other international convention(Biodiversity[CBD] andDesertification [UNCCD]). • The terrestrial carbon cycle science community (CO2 & CH4 sourcesand sinks); 23rd CEOS Plenary I Phuket, Thailand I 3-5 December 2009

  4. Themes

  5. Mosaics Generationhttp://www.eorc.jaxa.jp/ALOS/en/kc_mosaic/kc_mosaic.htm

  6. Monitoring deforestation (1/2) Deforestation time-change in Amazon west londonia region Surface scattering and the volume scattering.（Red arrow shows the back scattering） Clear cut region can be identified as the small backscattering area. Estimation of the deforestation time-change can be monitored.

  7. Monitoring deforestation (2/2) “Fish-Borne” deforestation in Amazon region observed by ADEOS-II/GLI (resolution = 250m) • Repeat observation covering wide area in short time • Continuous observation is planned by GCOM-C

  8. Near Real Time Operation~Quick Forest Observation Chain~ Within 24hrs Raw data Earth Observation Center/JAXA ALOS Within 24hrs Raw data DRTS PALSAR Acquisition:3.5 hrs/day 350GB/day 110M scenes/ 3 years Earth Observation Research Center/JAXA Within 5days: SCANSAR browse IBAMA The Brazilian Institute of Environment and Renewable Natural Resources

  9. Application of the SCANSAR data: ~Quick imaging and distribution~ b) a) c) Actual Cutting was done a)before cutting, b) mid of the cutting, c) after cutting. These images are provided to IBAMA and used for monitoring the deforestation. Tapajos,PARA State, Brazil Logging place

  10. Forest Forest Non Forest Non Forest Water Water 100 km 100 km Forest/Non-Forest Classification by PALSAR ~Sample in Indonesia~ Mountainous areas WWF map ALOS/PALSAR based map (First try)

  11. Biomass Estimation~Sample Image~ Biomass estimation for Viet Num Le Toan 23rd CEOS Plenary I Phuket, Thailand I 3-5 December 2009

  12. Wetland~Sample Images~ Wetland in Amazon by PALSAR（Hess)

  13. Desert Mosaic~Sample Image~ Mosaic of Sahara desert（Paillou）

  14. Future Plan on ALOS K&C Continue Data Acquisition/Processing, Mosaics generation Continue and improve Biomass Estimation & Forest/Non-Forest Classification Comparison with data in 1990s Data Analysis in Wide Area Please visit our web site on http://www.eorc.jaxa.jp/ALOS/en/kyoto/kyoto_index.htm
