Introduction
The "windPRO European VHR Satellite Imagery – 2.5m" give users of windPRO 3.2+ free access to very high-resolution satellite images from 39 European countries. The true-color images are obtained by high resolution satellites with a pixel resolution is approximately 2.5 meters.
Dataset Description
The “windPRO European VHR Satellite Imagery – 2.5m” is a true color very high resolution (VHR) satellite imagery dataset. Spatial resolution is 2.5m. The dataset was released by the European Environmental Agency through the Copernicus Land Monitoring Service and is a mosaic generated from the following satellite sensors:
- SPOT-5 at 2.5m pan-sharpened
- SPOT-6 at 1.5m pan-sharpened
- FORMOSAT-2 at 2m pan-sharpened
Access, Resolution and Coverage
- Access: From within the 'Dynamic Maps' section in the windPRO background map area. You will need a windPRO version 3.2+ and and active service agreement to access the data.
