Featured Datasets

GEOSAT-2 Iberian Peninsula Coverage
Jan-2021
Full coverage of Iberian Peninsula (Portugal and Spain including the Canaries, Azores, Balearics and Madeira islands) acquired by GEOSAT-2 from March 2021 to November 2021 reaching more than the 90% of cloudfree. The collection is composed by both Bundle (panchromatic + multispectral) and Pansharpend L1C Orthorectified products. Access is provided through the ESA TPM scheme. - Read more
GEOSAT-2 Full Archive and Tasking
Jan-2014
GEOSAT-2 (formerly Deimos-2) is the second satellite of the GEOSAT Earth Observation system, following GEOSAT-1. A high-resolution satellite, it became the first European fully-private satellite capable of providing sub-metric multispectral imagery with a two day average revisit time worldwide. ESA offers access to worldwide GEOSAT-1 data (both archived and new acquisitions) via the TPM scheme. - Read more
GEOSAT-1 & 2 ESA Archive
Jan-2009
GEOSAT-1 & 2 (formerly Deimos-1/2) are Earth-imaging microsatellites built for Elecnor Deimos of Spain. It is now owned and operated by GEOSAT Satelites. GEOSAT-1 was part of a group of satellites collectively known as the Disaster Monitoring Constellation (DMC) and was the first private European Earth observation satellite launched. The 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. - Read more
