Land Data Connectors
SPOT-VEGETATION: Daily global coverage of land at 1Km of spatial resolution.
PROBA-V: Daily global coverage of land at 300m resolution and every 5 days global coverage at 100m.
Copernicus Global Land Service: offers a global systematic monitoring service providing near real time bio geophysical parameters at global scale on vegetation state and dynamics and on land cover change.
On-demand derived vegetation products from Sentinel-2 or other HR sensors.
STAC database containing in-situ measurements: a wide variety of variables measured on the ground e.g. phenological stages, leaf area index, harvest yields, vegetation parameters, soil characteristics.
Atmosphere Data Connectors
The main data sources for Atmospheric data to be considered are from the Observing System Analysis and Review Tool (OSCAR) and the Global Atmosphere Watch Station Information System (GAWSIS). Both of these systems are operated by MeteoSwiss and they will be evolved to support the implementation of an ISO 19115/19156 compliant API for data access. The data connector will access these systems through an OGC OpenSearch interface to retrieve the metadata in a format compliant with the Catalogue (INSPIRE).
Marine Data Connectors
The main sources of marine data are CMEMS, MANIDA, Emodnet, OPEC and SeaDataNet and they provide INSPIRE compliant data accessible through OGC CSW interfaces. Both of these standards are natively supported by the harvesting engine.
Citizen Observatories
The data harvester will retrieve data from several European citizen observatories that were initiated by several EC funded projects (e.g. CITISENSE, WeSenseIt, Cobweb, CitClops, Omniscientis). The data for these projects are available through OGC WFS, OGC SOS interfaces following SensorML and WaterML formats.
Commercial Providers
The commercial data is organized in the Copernicus Data Warehouse, as part of the Copernicus Space Component Data Access system (CSCDA). Therein, data from the Copernicus contributing missions (mostly licenced by commercial distributors) is purchased by ESA to serve the needs of the Copernicus Core Services and other Copernicus users. The HMA (Heterogeneous Missions Accessibility) standard (partly also standardized by OGC) allows access to the catalogs of most European EO missions, especially those of commercial providers, such as DMI. The data harvester will deploy a mechanisms which implements the HMA standardization for data access supporting not only the current commercial data available in GSCDA but also new coming from negotiations with data providers.
