[PS2-3] Ground platforms and systems

Platforms and systems that acquire data from the level of earth's surface. A wide variety of ground based platforms are used in remote sensing. The acquired data are used for detailed in-situ measurements, e.g., Leaf Area Index (LAI), and for calibration/validation campaigns.
