From 1975, ESA began with its own ground systems, to acquire, process and archive data from Landsat, under the Earthnet program. Where possible, FRM consistent methods and stations, are used or direct comparisons between similar missions are adopted. For atmospheric sensors, the nature and potential variety of products makes it difficult to define a single set of Fiducial Reference Measurements (FRM) or 'test-sites' for all missions, as spatial resolution and parameters play a strong role. In this scenario, ESA is covering the role to assess the quality and the suitability of these missionsThis work presents the strategy of the quality assessment adopted for the Atmospheric missions: the proposed approach has been defined considering the variety and complexity of potential atmospheric domain activities. The proposed new missions seem to be very interesting and promising in terms of performances and data. The space panorama and in particular the EO sector is very dynamically evolving thanks to the active role of new and competitive space actors. ESAs Earthnet Data Assessment Pilot (EDAP) is a project, led by Telespazio UK, designed to perform early data quality assessments on existing and future Earth. Abstract: The ESA Earthnet Programme provides the framework for integrating non-ESA missions (Third Party Mission) in the overall ESA Earth Observation (EO) strategy, allowing data access and supporting the development of new research and applications. Operates within the structure of ESRIN establishment, under delegation by the ESA Directorate of Observation of the Earth and its Environment. ![]()
