Projects

CEO-TERRA was a project co-financed by the European Fund for Regional Development, through the Competitiveness Operational Program 2014-2020, POC-A.1-A.1.1.1-F-2015-152/2016. The aim of the project was to create a world-class infrastructure for observing and characterizing the environment through advanced optoelectronic methods. This infrastructure was relevant for the terrestrial segment of the ESA Earth observation program and […]

RAMOS – Technical Assistance For A Romanian Atmospheric Observation System was an ESA-ESTEC project (ESA/4000118115/16/NL/FF/gp) which aimed to develop and integrate a facility based on a combination of ground-based and airborne remote sensing capabilities to retrieve several atmospheric species (greenhouse gases, air pollutants, aerosols) in the context of current and future space-borne Earth observation missions.

ROMEO was a large measurement campaign aimed at investigating methane emissions from oil and gas production in Romania. The campaign was initiated by the European H2020 project MEMO2 and was funded through the Climate and Clean Air Coalition (CCAC) international methane science studies, administered by the United Nations Environment Program (UNEP). During the campaign, 14

MULTIPLY – Development of a European HSRL airborne facility, is a ESA-ESTEC project which proposes the development of a novel multi-wavelength HSRL system (3b + 2a + 3d) for airborne operation, capable of retrieving the aerosol extinction, backscatter and depolarization profile distributions. The system will be designed to be especially compact and robust, both optically and

ECARS aimed to strengthen and advance atmospheric remote sensing research by building a pole of excellence at the National Institute of R&D for Optoelectronics (INOE) in Romania and positioning it as a key player in Eastern Europe. Atmospheric remote sensing required multi-instrument, multi-platform, and multidisciplinary expertise to address complex climate and atmospheric challenges. Excellence in
