The DMC data archive contains data from the first (DMC-6) and second generation (DMC-6-22) UK satellites (which were part of the DMC), having multitemporal coverage for most parts of the UK for each year since 2007. The <a href=\"http://www.landmap.ac.uk/\">Landmap project</a> collected the best available DMC images as a single coverage of most of the UK for each year from 2007 to 2010. The resolution provided by the second generation satellites and first generation satellites is 22m and 32m respectively.</p>\r\n \r\n<p>The DMC is a constellation of small satellites that was formed by national governments and organisations for coordinating satellite imaging campaigns to assess and mitigate natural disasters with more up to date and timely imagery. The DMC programme started by launching Algeria's satellite \"AlSat-1\" in the year 2002. This first satellite was soon joined by the satellites of British National Space Centre, Nigeria and Turkey forming the four satellite constellation. Later, China and Spain also became a part of the DMC mission.</p>\r\n \r\n<p>The radiometers onboard have 2 banks of 3 imagers of the following bands and a spatial resolution of up to 22 or 32m:\r\n</p><ul>\r\n<li>Green: 0.52 to 0.60µm</li>\r\n<li>Red: 0.63 to 0.69µm</li>\r\n<li>Near InfraRed (NIR): 0.77 to 0.90µm</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<p /> \r\n\r\n<p>Data are available in GeoTiff and ecw (Enhanced Compression Wavelet) formats.</p>\r\n</div>\r\n\r\n", "modified": "2014-11-27", "ob_ref": 8225 }, { "id": 7888, "key": "observation.content.citation", "value": "<div property=\"cedacat:citation\">\r\n<div class=\"citation\">Citation</div>\r\nLandmap; DMC International Imaging Ltd.

Eight satellites have so far been launched, the most recent being Landsat 8, on February 11th, 2013. Landsat satellite imagery offers a unique resource for global change research and applications in agriculture, geology, forestry, regional planning, education, and national security.</p>\r\n<p> Raw Landsat 4/5 data covering the UK were acquired from <a href=\"http://www.astrium-geo.com/\">Infoterra</a> by the <a href=\"http://catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/uuid/7f1280cf215da6f8001eae5c2f019fe8\">Landmap project</a>. <a href=\"http://catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/uuid/7f1280cf215da6f8001eae5c2f019fe8\">Landmap</a> subsequently orthorectified and mosaiced the images. Two types of image data from the satellite are available for the UK from 1988 to 1992: <a href=\"http://catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/uuid/9bf3c7a69d84430280bd72c0e63a119c\">MultiSpectral Scanner (MSS)</a> and <a href=\"http://catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/uuid/c7d350b1ec99448187607ec46c4ce35e\">Thematic Mapper (TM)</a>. Landsat 4 and 5 carry both the MSS and the TM sensors; however, routine collection of MSS data was terminated in late 1992. The MSS and TM sensors primarily detect reflected radiation from the Earth's surface in the visible and near-infrared (IR) wavelengths, but the TM sensor with its seven spectral bands provides more radiometric information than the MSS sensor. The wavelength range for the TM sensor is from the visible, through the Mid-IR, into the Thermal-IR portion of the electromagnetic spectrum, in the following bands:\r\n</p><ul>\r\n<li>Band 1 (Blue): 0.45 to 0.52µm</li>\r\n<li>Band 2 (Green): 0.52 to 0.60µm</li>\r\n<li>Band 3 (Red): 0.63 to 0.69µm</li>\r\n<li>Band 4 (Near infrared): 0.76 to 0.90µm</li>\r\n<li>Band 5 (Mid infrared): 1.55 to 1.75µm</li>\r\n<li>Band 6 (Thermal infrared): 10.4 to 12.5µm</li>\r\n<li>Band 7 (Mid infrared): 2.08 to 2.35µm</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<p />\r\n<p>\r\nSixteen detectors for the visible and Mid-IR wavelength bands in the TM sensor provide 16 scan lines on each active scan. Four detectors for the Thermal-IR band provide four scan lines on each active scan. The TM sensor has a spatial resolution of 30 meters for bands 1 - 5, and band 7, and a spatial resolution of 120 meters for band 6. \r\n</p>\r\n<p>\r\nThe <a href=\"http://www.jisc.ac.uk/\">Joint Information Systems Committee (JISC)</a> funded <a href=\"http://catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/uuid/7f1280cf215da6f8001eae5c2f019fe8\">Landmap service</a> which ran from 2001 to July 2014 collected and hosted a large amount of earth observation data for the majority of the UK.

There have been 7 SPOT (Satellite Pour l'Observation de la Terre) satellites launched since 1986 (as of August 2014), providing medium to high resolution of the Earth's surface. The <a href=\"http://www.jisc.ac.uk/\">Joint Information Systems Committee (JISC)</a> funded <a href=\"http://catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/uuid/7f1280cf215da6f8001eae5c2f019fe8\">Landmap service</a> which ran from 2001 to July 2014 collected and hosted a large amount of earth observation data for the majority of the UK.

The SPOT Program supports commercial remote sensing on an international scale, establishing a global network of control centers, receiving stations, processing centres, and data distributors. SPOT 1, 2 and 3 carried a multi-spectral and panchromatic sensor on board. SPOT 7 was successfully launched on June 30th 2014.</p>\r\n\r\n<p>The first three SPOT satellites carry twin HRVs (High-Resolution Visible Imaging instruments) that operate in a number of viewing configurations and in different spectral modes. Some of those viewing configurations and spectral modes include one HRV only operating in a dual spectral mode (i.e. in both panchromatic mode and multispectral mode); two HRVs operating in the twin-viewing configuration (i.e. one HRV in panchromatic mode and one HRV in multispectral mode); and two HRVs operating independently of each other (i.e. not in twin-viewing configuration). The position of each HRV entrance mirror can be commanded by ground control to observe a region of interest. Operating independently of each other, the two HRVs acquire imagery in either multispectral (XS) and/or panchromatic (P) modes at any viewing angle within plus or minus 27 degrees. This off-nadir viewing enables the acquisition of stereoscopic imagery. To make sure the satellite covers every point on the earth's surface, the HRV imaging instruments offer a field of view that is wider than the greatest distance between two adjacent tracks. The three bands used in multispectral mode are:\r\n</p><ul>\r\n<li>Green: 0.50 to 0.59µm</li>\r\n<li>Red: 0.61 to 0.68µm</li>\r\n<li>Near InfraRed (NIR): 0.79 to 0.89µm</li>\r\n</ul>\r\nWhen in panchromatic mode, the HRVs detect radiation between 0.51 and 0.73µm.\r\n<p />\r\n\r\n</div>\r\n\r\n", "modified": "2015-08-03", "ob_ref": 8277 }, { "id": 7968, "key": "observation.content.citation", "value": "<div property=\"cedacat:citation\">\r\n<div class=\"citation\">Citation</div>\r\nLandmap; Infoterra.

Some regions are also available in ecw (Enhanced Compression Wavelet) format.</p>\r\n<p>Colour InfraRed imagery consists of imagery in three bands – Near InfraRed (NIR), red and green. CIR can be used study the health and variation of vegetation coverage as NIR rays are reflected at the bottom of leaves rather than the top, as with green. To aid with this, images were captured at times when plants were expected to be in full leaf. The invisible near infrared light of CIR can be \"seen\" by shifting it and the primary colours over so that near infrared wavelengths become visible as red while red wavelengths appear as green and green as blue. Blue wavelengths are shifted out of the visible portion of the spectrum and so they appear as black. On CIR imagery vegetation appears red while water generally appears black with artificial structures like buildings and roads showing as a light blue-green.</p>\r\n</div>\r\n\r\n", "modified": "2014-11-27", "ob_ref": 8293 }, { "id": 7990, "key": "observation.content.citation", "value": "<div property=\"cedacat:citation\">\r\n<div class=\"citation\">Citations</div>\r\nLandmap; GetMapping.
