Satellite Color Images, Vegetation Indices, and Metabolism Indices from Meiningen, Germany from 1985 – 2023

The "Germany Mosaic" is a time series of Landsat satellite images and vectorized segments covering the entirety of Germany from 1984 to 2023. The image data are divided into TK100 sheet sections (see further details: Blattschnitt der Topographischen Karte 1:100 000). The dataset provides optimized 6-band imagery for each year, representing summer (May to July) and autumn (August to October) seasons, along with vegetation indices such as NDVI (Normalized Difference Vegetation Index) and NirV (Near-Infrared Reflectance of Vegetation) for the same periods. Additionally, vectorized "zones" of approximately homogeneous pixels are available for each year. The spectral properties of the image data and the morphological characteristics of these zones are included as vector attributes (see Documentation: "Mosaic (1984–2023) - Data Description"). An overview of the coverage and quality of all sheet sections is provided as a vector layer titled D-Mosaik_Sheet-Sections within this document. The Germany Mosaic can also be considered a spatial-temporal Data Cube, enabling advanced analysis and integration into workflows requiring multi-dimensional data. This structure allows users to perform operations such as querying data across specific time periods, analyzing trends over decades, or aggregating spatial information to generate tailored insights for a wide range of research applications. In mid-latitudes, seasonal variations in vegetation—and consequently in the image data—are typically more pronounced than changes occurring over several years. The temporal segmentation of the dataset has been designed to encompass the entire vegetation period (May to October), with the division into summer and autumn periods capturing seasonal metabolic shifts in natural biotopes. This segmentation also records most agricultural changes, including sowing and harvesting activities. Depending on weather conditions, the individual image data represent either the median, mean value, or the best available image for the specified time period (see Documentation: "Mosaic (1984–2023) - Data Description). Remote sensing has become an indispensable tool for environmental research, particularly in landscape analysis. Beyond conventional applications, the Germany Mosaic supports the development of digital twins in environmental system research. By providing detailed spatial and temporal data, this dataset enables the modeling of virtual ecosystems, facilitating simulations, scenario testing, and predictive analyses for sustainable management. Moreover, the spatial and temporal trends captured by remotely sensed parameters complement traditional approaches in biological, ecological, geographical, and epidemiological research.

Sentinel-5P TROPOMI – Ultraviolet Index (UVI), Level 3 – Global

UV Index (UVI) as derived from TROPOMI observations. The UVI describes the intensity of the solar ultraviolet radiation. Values around zero indicate low, values greater than 10 indicate very high UV exposure on the ground. The TROPOMI instrument onboard the Copernicus SENTINEL-5 Precursor satellite is a nadir-viewing, imaging spectrometer that provides global measurements of atmospheric properties and constituents on a daily basis. It is contributing to monitoring air quality and climate, providing critical information to services and decision makers. The instrument uses passive remote sensing techniques by measuring the top of atmosphere solar radiation reflected by and radiated from the earth and its atmosphere. The four spectrometers of TROPOMI cover the ultraviolet (UV), visible (VIS), Near Infra-Red (NIR) and Short Wavelength Infra-Red (SWIR) domains of the electromagnetic spectrum. The operational trace gas products generated at DLR on behave ESA are: Ozone (O3), Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2), Sulfur Dioxide (SO2), Formaldehyde (HCHO), Carbon Monoxide (CO) and Methane (CH4), together with clouds and aerosol properties. This product is created in the scope of the project INPULS. It develops (a) innovative retrieval algorithms and processors for the generation of value-added products from the atmospheric Copernicus missions Sentinel-5 Precursor, Sentinel-4, and Sentinel-5, (b) cloud-based (re)processing systems, (c) improved data discovery and access technologies as well as server-side analytics for the users, and (d) data visualization services.

World Settlement Footprint (WSF) 3D - Building Volume - Global, 90m

The World Settlement Footprint (WSF) 3D provides detailed quantification of the average height, total volume, total area and the fraction of buildings at 90 m resolution at a global scale. It is generated using a modified version of the World Settlement Footprint human settlements mask derived from Sentinel-1 and Sentinel-2 satellite imagery in combination with digital elevation data and radar imagery collected by the TanDEM-X mission. The framework includes three basic workflows: i) the estimation of the mean building height based on an analysis of height differences along potential building edges, ii) the determination of building fraction and total building area within each 90 m cell, and iii) the combination of the height information and building area in order to determine the average height and total built-up volume at 90 m gridding. In addition, global height information on skyscrapers and high-rise buildings provided by the Emporis database is integrated into the processing framework, to improve the WSF 3D Building Height and subsequently the Building Volume Layer. A comprehensive validation campaign has been performed to assess the accuracy of the dataset quantitatively by using VHR 3D building models from 19 globally distributed regions (~86,000 km2) as reference data. The WSF 3D standard layers are provided in the format of Lempel-Ziv-Welch (LZW)-compressed GeoTiff files, with each file - or image tile - covering an area of 1 x 1 ° geographical lat/lon at a geometric resolution of 2.8 arcsec (~ 90 m at the equator). Following the system established by the TDX-DEM mission, the latitude resolution is decreased in multiple steps when moving towards the poles to compensate for the reduced circumference of the Earth.

Die Sanasilva-Inventur

*Der Gesundheitszustand der Bäume im Schweizer Wald wird seit 1985 mit der Sanasilva-Inventur repräsentativ erfasst. Die wichtigsten Merkmale sind die Kronenverlichtung und die Sterberate. Das systematische Probeflächen-Netz der Inventur ist im Laufe der Zeit ausgedünnt worden. In der Periode von 1985 bis 1992 wurden rund 8000 Bäume auf 700 Flächen im 4x4 km-Netz aufgenommen, 1993, 1994 und 1997 rund 4000 Bäume im 8x8 km-Netz und in den Jahren 1995, 1996 und 1998 bis 2002 rund 1100 Bäume im 16x16 km-Netz . Aufnahmemethode Alle drei Jahre (1997, 2000) wird die Sanasilva-Inventur auf dem 8x8-km Netz (ca. 170 Probeflächen ) durchgeführt. In den Jahren dazwischen findet die Inventur auf einem reduzierten 16x16-km Netz (49 Probeflächen) statt. Jede Fläche besteht aus zwei konzentrischen Kreisen. Der äussere Kreis hat ein Radius von 12.62 m (500 m2) und der innere ein Radius von 7.98 m (200 m2). Auf dem inneren Kreis werden alle Bäume mit einem Mindestdurchmesser in Brusthöhe von 12 cm und auf dem äusseren Kreis mit einem Mindestdurchmesser in Brusthöhe von 36 cm aufgenommen. In Nordrichtung wird zusätzlich in 30 m Entfernung eine identische Satellitenprobenfläche eingerichtet. Die Aufnahme findet in Juli und August statt. Eine Aufnahmegruppe besteht aus zwei Personen, von denen eine die Daten erhebt, und die andere die Daten eintippt. Die Daten werden mit dem Feldkomputer Paravant und der Software Tally erfasst. Die Aufgabenteilung wechselt zwischen Probeflächen. Auf dem 8x8-km Netz werden zusätzlich 10 Prozent der Flächen von einer unabhängigen zweiten Aufnahmegruppe zu Kontrollzwecken aufgenommen. Hauptmerkmale der Sanasilva-Inventur: Die Sanasilva-Inventur erfasst vor allem folgende Indikatoren des Baumzustandes: Die Kronenverlichtung wird beschrieben durch den Prozentanteil der Verlichtung einer Krone im Vergleich zu einem Baum gleichen Alters mit maximaler Belaubung/Benadelung an diesem Standort, den Anteil dieser Verlichtung, der nicht durch bekannte Ursachen erklärt werden kann, den Ort der Verlichtung, den Anteil und den Ort von unbelaubten/unbenadelten Ästen und Zweigen. Die Kronenverfärbung wird durch die Abweichung der mittleren Farbe (aufgenommen als Farbton, Reinheit und Helligkeit nach den Munsell Colour Charts) eines Baumes zu der für diese Baumart typischen Normalfarbe (Referenzfarbe) und durch das Vorhandensein, das Ausmass und den Ort der von der Referenzfarbe abweichenden Farben beschrieben. Der Zuwachs eines Baumes wird durch die zeitliche Veränderung der aufgenommen Baumgrössen beschrieben (Brusthöhendurchmesser, Höhe des Baumes, Kronenlänge und Kronenbreite). Weitere Merkmale sind die erkannten Ursachen der Kronenverlichtung, die Kronenkonkurrenz und das Vorkommen von Epiphyten, Mistel und Ranken in der Baumkrone.

METOP GOME-2 - Water Vapour (H2O) - Global

The Global Ozone Monitoring Experiment-2 (GOME-2) instrument continues the long-term monitoring of atmospheric trace gas constituents started with GOME / ERS-2 and SCIAMACHY / Envisat. Currently, there are three GOME-2 instruments operating on board EUMETSAT's Meteorological Operational satellites MetOp-A, -B and -C, launched in October 2006, September 2012, and November 2018, respectively. GOME-2 can measure a range of atmospheric trace constituents, with the emphasis on global ozone distributions. Furthermore, cloud properties and intensities of ultraviolet radiation are retrieved. These data are crucial for monitoring the atmospheric composition and the detection of pollutants. DLR generates operational GOME-2 / MetOp level 2 products in the framework of EUMETSAT's Satellite Application Facility on Atmospheric Chemistry Monitoring (AC-SAF). GOME-2 near-real-time products are available already two hours after sensing. The operational H2O total column products are generated using the algorithm GDP (GOME Data Processor) version 4.x integrated into the UPAS (Universal Processor for UV/VIS Atmospheric Spectrometers) processor for generating level 2 trace gas and cloud products. The total H2O column is retrieved from GOME solar backscattered measurements in the red wavelength region (614-683.2 nm), using the Differential Optical Absorption Spectroscopy (DOAS) method. For more details please refer to relevant peer-review papers listed on the GOME and GOME-2 documentation pages: https://atmos.eoc.dlr.de/app/docs/

Digital Orthophotos and water-land-boundaries at the Elbe estuary (Germany), July 2022, Sat-Land-Fluss-project

In July 2022 we mapped the tidal area of the Elbe near Cuxhaven and Brunsbüttel. The data was gathered by UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) with a RBG camera and a PDGNSS-Rover (Precice Differential Global Navigation Satellite System) in three areas: 1) Otterndorf at low tidal level (beach area), 2) Neufelderkoog at low tidal level (wadden area), 3) Neufeld at high tidal level (flooded reed area). For each area we provide a digital orthophoto and the correlation of the measurement timing to the local sea level. The measurements were obtained at the same time as the radar satellite Sentinel 1 crossed the area. The data is structured in three zip-archives corresponding to the study areas: 1) 20220712_Tnw_Otterndorf.zip: provides the time series data as comma-separated text files (CSV)  provides (a) a digital orthophoto at 1,5 cm resolution, (b) an overview jpg showing of the measurement times and the local sea level, (c) timing of the UAV-flightlines and (d) two PDGNSS measurement series collected simultaneously as csv. (downloadable as 10.4 GB zip archive),  2) 20220712_Tnw_NeufelderkoogPriel.zip: provides (a) a digital orthophoto at 2 cm resolution and (b) an overview jpg showing of the measurement times and the local sea level (downloadable as 6,3 GB zip archive),  3) 20220720_Thw_Neufeld.zip: provides (a) a digital orthophoto at 2 cm resolution and (b) an overview jpg showing of the measurement times and the local sea level (downloadable as 8,4 GB zip archive). The data is used in the frame of the project "satellite based water-land-boundary detection" (Sat-Land-Fluss), as validation for Sentinel-1 derived water-land determinations. Sat-Land-Fluss was a R&D project lasting from 2020-2024, funded by the German Federal Ministry for Digital and Transport in the 4th project call "National Copernicus Application" (50EW2015).
