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.

ESA is challenging ‘citizen scientists' to apply the latest AI and image processing techniques to upscale images acquired by the Earth-watching Proba-V minisatellite.

Near the end of last year, due to a huge amount of interest from the users, it was decided to acquire Proba-V data over Antarctica from November 2017 to February 2018.

The campaign has now been completed: the 1 km, 300 m and 100 m resolution products of Antarctica are available online via the Proba-V Distribution Platform in the respective product collections.

The 2nd Proba-V Symposium has been organised by the European Space Agency (ESA) in cooperation with the Belgian Science Policy Office (BELSPO). The event will take place in Ostend (Belgium), from 29 to 31 May 2018.

Users interested in attending the symposium can now register via the Conference Website until the deadline of 29 April 2018.

The Proba-V Mission Exploitation Platform (MEP), released at the end of 2016, complements the Proba-V user segment by building an operational Exploitation Platform on Proba-V and SPOT-Vegetation data, with the aim to ease and foster the use of the data. 

The 2nd operational version of the Proba-V MEP has now been released with new and improved features.

Due to interest from the Proba-V user community, the satellite is being used to acquire images over Antarctica from November 2017 to February 2018.

The abstract submission deadline for the Proba-V Symposium 2018 has been extended until 30 November 2017 - interested users are kindly reminded to submit an abstract for oral presentation via the online submission form.

Following the successful LPVE 2014, the European Space Agency (ESA) is inviting scientists and Cal/Val experts to present the latest results from their on-going research at the 2018 Workshop on Land Product Validation and Evolution (LPVE 2018).

The abstract submission deadline has been extended to 30 November 2017.

The next Proba-V Symposium will take place from 29 to 31 May 2018 in Ostend, Belgium.

If you are interested in submitting an abstract for the symposium, please remember that the deadline for submission is 16 November 2017.

The abstract submission for the Proba-V Symposium 2018 opened on 05 October 2017; the deadline for the submission of abstracts is 16 November 2017.
