Easy visualisation of Earth observation data with new HEDAVI tool modes
25 June 2024
The Discover mode in HEDAVI showcases the usefulness of Earth Observation (EO) data in a variety of applications through a list of case-studies—so-called “stories”. The first new feature allows users to share links to the stories in HEDAVI. The second new feature allows them to export any image of a case-study from the Discover mode to the Explorer mode.
ESA's improved Earth system data records: what is in store for the future?
