Getting Started
The resource catalogue contains both open access and commercial Earth Observation datasets. Optical imagery (including Sentinels), Synthetic Aperture RADAR (SAR), observed and modelled climate products, are available. No LiDAR datasets are currently available in the resource catalogue.
The catalogue of open access imagery includes publicly available Sentinel 1 and Sentinel 2 Analysis-Ready Data, provisioned by the CEDA Data Archive catalogue. The Earth Observation Climate Information Service (EOCIS), ESA Climate Change Initiative (CCI), and HadUK-Grid collectively provide the climate observation-derived data products available on the Hub. UK Climate Projections (UKCP), The Co-Ordinated Regional Downscaling Experiment (CORDEX), and CMIP6 supply modelled climate variable products to the Resource Catalogue, detailed specifications both of which can be found here.
The Hub platform facilitates purchasing of commercial imagery from Airbus and Planet, on the condition that users hold an existing user account with these providers. PlanetScope and SkySat imagery can be purchased from Planet. Pléiades, Pléiades Neo, SPOT and TerraSAR-X imagery can be purchased from Airbus. More information on these data specifications, as well as guidance on purchasing and licensing restrictions, can be found here.
