ITaRS aims:

• To impart an in-depth understanding of instrumentation and algorithms needed to retrieve geophysical quantities and atmospheric applications;
• To foster the synergy of different sensors by bringing together experts from the individual techniques;
• To develop and implement pan-European courses on atmospheric remote sensing by exploiting new web-based techniques;
• To close the gap between the specialized development of single instruments and atmospheric applications by training a new generation of scientists in academia and the private sector.
