Because Sentinel-3 observes large regions of the ocean, it can be used to identify regions of interest for NTNU's HYPSO-1 hyperspectral imaging satellite, which collects more detailed information about a smaller region. In particular, we are interested in identifying locations of potential algal blooms, which are a danger to fish farms.

• HYPSO-1 observes only a small region of the Norwegian coast, although with low latency and high revisit time

• Other satellites (Sentinel-2/3 in particular) observe more of the coast with a higher revisit time and lower spectral resolution

• The goal of this project is to search through the incoming data from other satellites for possible algal blooms, so that HYPSO can be pointed towards the relevant region

• This would be affiliated with the Grønn platform project, so there will be significant interaction with our fish farming industrial partners

• can be extended to enable for the masters’ thesis
