Over the last 12 months, @CSIRO and @NASAJPL have been working on a joint feasibility to determine if a JPL imaging spectrometer can be used to deliver actionable information on water quality and aquatic ecosystems from space. First paper out now: https://t.co/DQMX9zG1lO

[CEOS-ARD @CEOSARD]

New CEOS-ARD Dataset! @CSIRO's 14 different #NovaSAR Normalised Radar Backscatter products, including ScanSAR and StripMap modes, in various polarsations, resolutions and swath widths. Congratulations to the team!

This week we’re excited about new Australian tech now in orbit on a Skykraft satellite. 🚀

The CyanoSat payload is designed to detect blue-green algae from space. During this first space-flight, we plan to test the performance of the engineering design. https://t.co/VjWKU97DTI

What if satellite data users could access data already processed to a minimum set of requirements and formated to allow immediate analysis, w/minimal additional effort, and major interoperability w/other datasets? That's CEOS Analysis Ready Data.
