Introduction
The aim of the workshop is to gather feedback from the user community on specific applications of products disseminated by the LSA SAF. Relevant aspects include re-evaluation of product specifications and assessment of needs for new products. Potential usage of existing products in new applications will be explored.
The main purpose of the LSA SAF is to develop techniques to retrieve parameters related with land, land-atmosphere interactions, and biospheric applications, using data from satellites, with special emphasis on Meteosat and Metop series. The LSA SAF system currently generates and distributes on an operational basis the following products : land surface temperature, albedo, downward surface short and long wave fluxes, snow cover, vegetation parameters (FVC, LAI, and FAPAR), evaporation, and a suite of forest fire products.

The LSA SAF system currently generates and distributes on an operational basis the following products: Land Surface Temperature, Albedo, Down-welling Surface Short and Long Wave Fluxes, Snow Cover, Vegetation parameters (FVC, LAI, and fAPAR). Evaporation and a suite of Forest Fire products are currently under development.
