Preprocessing-07: The Observation Request Portal
Channel: HYPERedu
Date: 12/07/2023

The Environmental Mapping and Analysis Program (EnMAP), managed by the German Space Agencsy at DLR and funded from the Federal Ministry of Economic Affairs and Climate Action (BMWK), is a German hyperspectral satellite mission that monitors and characterizes the Earth’s environment on a global scale. The satellite was successfully launched in April 2022. Registered users can request new data acquisitions or can obtain archived data through the EnMAP Data Access Portal.

This video shows how to plan future observations and submit observation requests for future EnMAP data acquisitions. Furthermore, the parameter settings and data products are explained in more detail. Please check out our other videos on submitting new proposals, registering to the EnMAP Data Access Portal and how to obtain data from the data archive. This video was produced in cooperation with the DLR Ground Segment.

‘Beyond the Visible – EnMAP data access and image preprocessing techniques‘ is an advanced short course on Hyperspectral Remote Sensing focusing on image data access and image preprocessing of EnMAP satellite data and is presented by HYPERedu and EO-College.

OPEN FROM July 2023

This course teaches the fundamentals of preprocessing methods specifically for imaging spectroscopy data and how this workflow is reflected in EnMAP products. Additionally, you will get to know the German hyperspectral mission EnMAP in much more detail, and see how you can access EnMAP data, and order new acquisitions.

The course was developed by GFZ Potsdam as part of the HYPERedu initiative with support from experts at various partner institutions, particularly the DLR Ground Segment. The development was funded within the EnMAP science program under the German Space Agency at DLR with resources from the German Federal Ministry of Economic Affairs and Climate Action.
