COSMO-SkyMed ESA Archive
Jan-2007
| COSMO-SkyMed is a four-spacecraft constellation, conceived by Agenzia Spaziale
Italiana (ASI) and funded by the Italian Ministry of Research (MUR) and the
Italian Ministry of Defense (MoD). Each of the four satellites is equipped with a SAR instrument and is capable of
operating in all visibility conditions at high resolution and in real time. The overall
objective of this program is global EO and the relevant data exploitation for the
needs of the military community as well as for the civil (institutional, commercial)
community. The ESA TPM collection is composed by the copy of products requested by ESA supported projects
over their areas of interest around the world. The dataset regularly grows as ESA collects
new products over the years. Read more
