Proba-V data is free and openly accessible through various portals. The Terrascope platform, built on the technology and expertise gained from the Mission Exploitation Platform (MEP), enables users to access, view, and analyze the Proba-V data in multiple ways and facilitates a more efficient path from data to information and new knowledge on our planet's dynamics.

Chilean capital Santiago – among the largest conurbations in South America – viewed in false colour from ESA's Proba-V minisatellite, with vegetation in red.

The snow-capped peaks of the Southern Alps stretch more than 500 km northeast to southwest across New Zealand's South Island, imaged here in the southern hemisphere's autumn by ESA's Proba-V minisatellite – now into its seventh year in orbit.

At ESA's Living Planet symposium in Milan this week, the Copernicus Global Land Service team have released their new set of global land cover layers for the year 2015.

The joint ESA / VITO Proba-V satellite mission was launched exactly 6 years ago on 7 May 2013 to continue the 15 year legacy of SPOT-VEGETATION.

A Proba-V view of the internationally protected, volcanic archipelago of the Galápagos and its surrounding marine reserve. This island chain is renowned for its many endemic species that were studied by Charles Darwin, directly contributing to his famous theory of evolution by means of natural selection.

For the second consecutive austral summer season (see the 2018 news), Proba-V observed Antarctica and its ongoing changes: observations on the continent's land and sea ice surfaces were performed from 12 November 2018 until 18 February 2019.

The rapid evolution of Egypt's Nile Delta over the last four years, as viewed from ESA's Proba-V microsatellite. Think of it as a small token of our love for planet Earth: just a cubic metre in size, Proba-V maps land cover and vegetation growth across the entire world every two days.

The Open Science Earth Observation (OSEO) call aims to foster scientific and applications uptake of full archives of EO data, by offering third party services which exploit state of the art ICT. ESA is pleased to announce the Proba-V Mission Exploitation Platform (MEP) Service as a 3rd-party service added to the OSEO call.

ESA's Proba-V minisatellite images the verdant Yucatán peninsula, once home to the Maya civilization and the site of the impact believed to have doomed the dinosaurs.
