VAWS: Complementary Uses of GEO and LEO Satellite Data in Alaska

(https://uaf-accap.org/event/september2020-vaws/)

Carl Dierking, Geographic Information Network of Alaska (GINA)
University of Alaska Fairbanks (UAF)

For Alaska, LEO and GEO satellites have advantages and disadvantages, however other traditional observation networks are sparse in the state, so it is important to utilize the best qualities of each platform to fully diagnose and monitor hazardous natural events. This presentation will show several examples of how data from each of these satellite platforms can be complementary in this process.
