Earth-Online-Newsletter-17-February-2023
This issue of the Earth Online Newsletter covers a selection of the latest news and events from ESA.
Tools - Catalogues
Copernicus Open Access Hub
The Copernicus Open Access Hub is a data catalogue that provides complete, free and open access to Sentinel data products from Sentinel-1, Sentinel-2, Sentinel-3 and Sentinel-5P.
News - Success Stories
New open-source Python library improves rapid mapping services
In emergency services, rapid response is paramount. ICube-SERTIT’s Rapid Mapping Service provides near real-time delivery of geo-information to help emergency services respond quickly to disasters such as flooding, fires and landslides. A new Python open-source library, called EOReader, speeds up this mapping response by enabling the easy opening of imagery from multiple satellite sensors, both optical and synthetic aperture radar (SAR).
News - Success Stories
Ground-based campaigns support NO2 monitoring in Po Valley
The Po Valley in Italy is one of the most polluted regions in Europe. High NO2 concentrations often occur due to industrial and urban activities and the topography of the Po River basin, where the Alps and Apennines limit the dispersal of pollutants.
Event - Workshop
Space and the Arctic 2009 Workshop
Temperatures in the Arctic are rising at an unprecedented rate. This workshop looked at the needs and challenges of working and living in the rapidly changing Arctic and explore how space-based services might help to meet those needs.
Event - Workshop
Insurance Industry Workshop on Earth Observation
This ESA workshop examined the potential value of satellite Earth Observation data to the insurance industry.
News - Events and Proceedings
Φ-Week Triumphs
In its fourth edition, Φ-Week presented the scientific community with amazing opportunities and projects—thus running alongside innovation at 360 degrees.
Activity - General activities
GSCB and LTDP
The Copernicus programme is based on a fleet of European Earth observation satellites, built and operated by ESA, member states and commercial entities. Copernicus will also offer data from non-European satellites.
Activity - General activities
EO Science for Society
ESA's Earth Observation Science for Society programme aims to promote scientific exploitation of satellite data, forges new scientific discoveries and pioneers new services, stimulating downstream industrial and economic growth.
Mission - Copernicus Sentinels
Copernicus Sentinel-5P
The Copernicus Sentinel-5 Precursor mission is the first Copernicus mission dedicated to monitoring our atmosphere.
Tools - Analysis
ESA PDGS Jupyter Notebook
A series of Jupyter Notebooks are available, in order to understand how to exploit the API that provides the data access service for different types of datasets included in the ESA PDGS datacube.
Tools - Visualisation
EVDC Orbit Prediction Tool
The EVDC Orbit Prediction and Overpass Tool generates and visualises satellite's overpasses.
Data - Announcement of Opportunity
CLOSED - Announcement of Opportunity for S5PVT (Sentinel-5 Precursor Calibration and Validation Team)
In the framework of the Copernicus programme, ESA offered an announcement of opportunity to support the Sentinel-5 Precursor Calibration and Validation Team Call.
Activity - Instrument characterisation and algorithm studies

Campaign
AROMAT-I
The main objective of this AROMAT-I campaign was to test newly developed airborne sensors and to evaluate their capabilities as validation tools for future air quality space borne sensors, in particular TROPOMI.
Activity - Fiducial Reference Measurements
FRM4GHG: Reference Measurements for Ground-Based FTIR Greenhouse Gas Observation
Fiducial Reference Measurements for Ground-Based Infrared Greenhouse Gas Observations (FRM4GHG) is a European Space Agency (ESA) funded project.
Event - Training
4th ESA EARSEL CNR School - Remote Sensing for Forest Fires
This course was to disseminate and discuss research methods and technologies of active and passive Earth Observation for applications related to forest fires.
Tools - Processing
Atmospheric Toolbox
The Atmospheric Toolbox (previously known as BEAT) is a collection of executable tools and API, developed to facilitate the utilisation, viewing and processing of e.g. GOMOS, MIPAS, SCIAMACHY and GOME data.
Tools - Visualisation
S2G Data Viewer
S2G Data Viewer is an extensible application that allows you to inspect the contents of CCSDS-compliant telemetry data exchanged between a satellite and its ground segments on the space-to-ground link.
Tools - Processing
EO CFI Software
Earth Observation CFI Software is a collection of multiplatform precompiled C libraries for timing, coordinate conversions, orbit propagation, satellite pointing calculations, and target visibility calculations.
