1 Maximize Utilization of the performance of EOSs and strengthen cooperation among DPN/DAN The First Steering Committee Secretariat JAXA

2 ALOS 2 observation is strong tool for disaster monitoring Wide area/range and high resolution observation at a time swash :50km~490km resolution : 100m~3mX1m Reputational observation ( 14 days recurrent period ) ALOS 2 can observe almost every day, 2 times observations a day (day and night) everywhere on the earth JAXA can provide the observed image to the user about one hour after observation No disturbance against observation by the rain and the cloud ALOS 2 L band SAR can observe land through vegetation and snow but identify vegetation using polarization ALOS 2 L band SAR, 23cm wave length with high S/N ratio, is the best solution to identify crustal movement by Interpherometry analysis 2

3 ALOS 2: Advanced Land Observing Satellite 2 N Revisit 14days PALSAR 2 Phased Array type L band Synthetic Aperture Radar type 2 S Sun synchronous Sub recurrent orbit Agility Microwave All weather Amplitude + Phase Spotlight 25 km / 1 3 m Strip map 70 km / 3 10 m ScanSAR 490 km / 100 m Swath / Resolution

4 First Light of ALOS 2/PALSAR 2 Comparison of images taken by ALOS 2 and other previous satellites (Urayasu City, Tokyo Disney Land) JERS 1 SAR, April 21, 1992, (Resolution: about 18 m) ALOS PALSAR, April 27, 2006, (Resolution: about 10 m) ALOS 2 PALSAR 2, June 19, 2014, (Resolution: about 3 m) 4

5 Observation of the flood in Pakistan on 30 July, 2015 by ALOS 2/PALSAR 2 Strip Map mode observation Swash: 50kmX50km Resolution.: 3m Scan SAR mode observation Swash: 350km Resolution: 100m China Afghanistan India Pakistan Indus river basin Left angle ascending observation ScanSAR (wide area) observation followed by SM (high resolution ) observation after only 4 seconds
