GlobalCDA is a DFG-funded research unit that aims at improving our understanding of the global freshwater system by combining hydrological modelling with remote sensing data. Since June 2018 nine project partners from Germany, Luxembourg and UK are working on developing a calibration and data assimilation framework, on refining the underlying hydrological model and on generating accurate remote sensing data sets. DGFI-TUM contributes in the projects WALESA and ARISAS by providing water level time series for inland water bodies based on satellite altimetry.
