ALOS is a Japanese Earth-Observation satellite, developed by JAXA. The objective of the mission is to provide the user community with data of sufficient resolution to be able to generate 1:25,000 scale maps. ALOS mission objectives as set by JAXA are to: - Develop digital elevation models (DEMs) and related geographic data products - Perform regional observation for 'sustainable development' (harmonization between Earth environment and development) - Conduct disaster monitoring around the world - Survey natural resources - Develop sensor and satellite technology for future Earth-observing satellites The mission includes optical and an active L-band microwave sensor payload whose high-resolution data may be used for environmental and hazard monitoring. ESA will provide the European/African node for data distribution.
