Introduction
Increased shippingandfishing along the Norwegiancoast and
inthe BarentsSea
Spaceborne SARsince 1998 increase overview
Traditionally:Coarse resolution SARimagery
Recently:Spacebased AIS>Higher resolution SARdatafor
selected areasof interest
SAR:RADARSAT2,TerraSARX,CosmoSkyMed
Optical:Worldview1andGeoEye
Presentation:
Ship detection inhigh resolution imagery
Combined with spacebased andlandbased AIS
