NISAR (NASA-ISRO Synthetic Aperture Radar) Information
NISAR is a joint Earth-observing mission between NASA and the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) with the goal to make global measurements of the causes and consequences of land surface changes using advanced radar imaging. This mission concept and the resulting partnership are in response to the National Academy of Science’s 2007 survey of Earth observational priorities for the next decade, known as the decadal survey. One of the top priorities identified in this survey was to gain data and insight in three Earth science domains: ecosystems, deformation of Earth's crust and cryospheric sciences.

EOS-06 OCM-3 observations reveal a distinct seasonal evolution, intensification and spatial migration of the winter phytoplankton bloom over the Arabian Sea, with bloom initiation occurring in January. The bloom progressively intensifies and expands during February–April, extending from the northern Arabian Sea towards the central and southern regions, approximately from 25°N to 10°N. During this period, pronounced mesoscale eddies...

Bhuvan Thematic Services – Wasteland Mapping: Tracking Changes in India’s Land Resources
The Wasteland Mapping module of Bhuvan Thematic Services provides geospatial information for visualising and analysing the distribution, extent and temporal changes of wastelands across India at 1:50,000 scale. The application provides wasteland datasets for 2008–09 and 2015–16, enabling direct comparison of wasteland categories and assessment of changes in land resources over time. Wasteland mapping has progressively evolved from single-season satellite interpretation to a multi-temporal approach using Kharif, Rabi and Zaid season...Announcements
