WACA-VAR

WACA-VAR in the field

It's a fact that West African coastlines are particularly vulnerable to the impacts of climate change. They also suffer from a lack of in situ data, which is why WACA-VAR is testing the added value of satellite data for risk assessment. Having just returned from two measurement campaigns, the team is delighted with the excellent correlations with calculations derived from satellite data, enabling them to confidently engage the online visualization tool.

Quarterly 17

3 projects, 3 environments, 1 lever: satellite data

What do oceans, mountains and the atmosphere have in common? Earth observation satellites, of course! From their privileged position, generally between 500 and 600 km above our heads, their sensors take the pulse of all the components of the planet. On Thursday June 19, 2025, three SCO projects using this data in different environments presented their remarkable solutions at the 17th “SCO France Quarterly Meeting”.

P4UF, a pioneering flood risk assessment project

As extreme climatic events intensify, observation and modeling tools are becoming essential levers for anticipating and managing risks. With very promising initial results, the Pléiades4UrbanFlood project explores the potential of high-resolution Pléiades monoscopic imagery to produce an initial assessment of the vulnerability of an urban environment to flooding.
