As we say goodbye to 2024, we at Progressive Systems are reflecting on another year for EarthConsole®, our cloud-based platform supporting the development, testing and hosting of processors provided by the scientific community. From new processors to advancing key research projects, here are the highlights that shaped our journey this year: New processors integrated into […]

Reducing Time Spent on Preparing Earth Observation Data: ARD for ENVISAT MERIS FR now on EarthConsole®

/in , , /by

Preparing Earth Observation data for processing can be a time-consuming and complex task, requiring technical expertise or access to an in-house processing infrastructure which may not always be readily available. This is where Analysis Ready Data (ARD) becomes increasingly valuable, above all for non-EO experts. ARD simplifies the process by providing pre-processed, georeferenced and harmonized […]

Coastal and Open Ocean Altimetry Data: How ALES unlocks insights from 1995 to today on EarthConsole®

/in , , /by

In the world of satellite altimetry, precision is key. For years, satellites have revolutionized how we measure sea levels, monitor ocean currents, and track environmental changes. But there’s been one tricky area for researchers: coastal regions. Historically, satellite altimeters have struggled to provide reliable data near coastlines. That’s where ALES — the Adaptive Leading Edge […]

EarthConsole® Stories: GPU-powered SAR back-projection fully focused processor for enhanced S6 altimetry data processing

/in , /by

EarthConsole® Stories are experiences about how we helped universities, research centres or service developers to leverage Earth Observation data to extract valuable insights for their research, educational or pre-commercial projects. In the frame of the Sentinel-6 Poseidon-4 Ground Processor Prototype project, a Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) back-projection fully focused processor for Sentinel-6 (S6) was developed […]

EarthConsole® Stories: Tracking and predicting changes in river systems with ENVISAT data

/in , , /by

EarthConsole® Stories are experiences about how we helped universities, research centres or service developers to leverage Earth Observation data to extract valuable insights for their research, educational or pre-commercial projects. The ESA River Discharge Climate Change Initiative aims to generate long-term climate data records—spanning at least 20 years—of river discharge for selected river basins and […]
