Type of entity | Platform |
Main activity | The purpose of the Imaging and Instrument Division is to coordinate the acquisition, management and exploitation of underwater, aerial and satellite images and remote detection products for research, observation and teaching. Scope of activity: remote detection on land and at sea, both above and below the surface, as well as extracted and complementary geographical information. Skills: high-resolution sensors (better than 20 m), both active (Lidar, acoustic, Radar) and passive (optical, thermal, hyperspectral). Tasks: 1/ Coordinate the acquisition, management and exploitation of underwater, aerial and satellite images and remote detection products for research, observation and teaching. 2/ Support a few wide-scale and well-identified targeted research actions common to several laboratories within the institute. 3/ Provide support in the monitoring of labelled batches, within the framework of Research infrastructures (ILICO) and National Observations Services. |
