QuickBird-2 ESA archive

The QuickBird-2 archive collection consists of QuickBird-2 products requested by ESA supported projects over their areas of interest around the world. The dataset regularly grows as ESA collects new products over the years. Panchromatic (up to 61 cm resolution) and 4-Bands (up to nominal value of 2.44m resolution, reduced to 1.63m when at the end of the mission the orbit altitude was lowered to 300km) products are available; the 4-Bands includes various options such as Multispectral (separate channel for BLUE, GREEN, RED, NIR1), Pan-sharpened (BLUE, GREEN, RED, NIR1), Bundle (separate bands for PAN, BLUE, GREEN, RED, NIR1), Natural Color (pan-sharpened BLUE, GREEN, RED), Colored Infrared (pan-sharpened GREEN, RED, NIR1), Natural Colour / Coloured Infrared (3-Band pan-sharpened) The processing levels are: • STANDARD (2A): normalized for topographic relief • VIEW READY STANDARD (OR2A): ready for orthorectification • VIEW READY STEREO: collected in-track for stereo viewing and manipulation • MAP-READY (ORTHO) 1:12.000 Orthorectified: additional processing unnecessary • MAP-READY (ORTHO) 1:15.000 Orthorectified: additional processing unnecessary
