The Ice, Cloud and Land Elevation Satellite (ICESat) was launched January 13, 2003. The primary purpose of this mission is the determination of inter-annual and long-term changes in polar ice-sheet mass, the causes of changes in mass balance, and the impact of these changes on global sea level. In addition to these objectives, ICESat mission also enables precise measurement of land topography a...

Possessing accurate, spatial and current data on the water levels and the depths are necessary for anticipation and better management of coastal and continental waters. Among the remote sensing techniques to monitor the water bathymetry and altimetry, the LIDAR appears as an adapted and promising technique, already proven on airborne platforms, because of its potential accuracy, spatial resolut...
