ALOS-2
Systematic Observation Strategy
To obtain the image with spatial and temporal consistencies over sub-continental scale.
- PALSAR-2 Basic Observation Scenario Map/User
Guideline
- Upload of Basic Observation Scenario Map (by cycle) and KML.
- Upload KMLs of the Basic Observation Scenario results.
ALOS-2 basic observation scenario is not always observed due to the following reasons,
so please refer to the weekly observation plan below for a more realistic observation plan.

- The maximum observation duty cycle has been reduced from 50% to 30% after the end of nominal operation phase in October 2019.
- Observations with higher priority than the basic observation scenario are sometimes conducted.
