RESA

The company RapidEye AG of Brandenburg brought on 29 August 2008 five satellites into orbit that can be aligned within a day to any point on Earth. The data are interesting for a number of large and small companies for applications from harvest planning to assessment of insurance claims case of natural disasters. Via the Rapid Eye Science Archive (RESA) science users can receive, free of charge, optical image data of the RapidEye satellite fleet. Imagery is allocated based on a proposal to be submitted via the RESA Portal which will be evaluated by independent experts. All RESA data is stored in the German Satellite Data Archive (D-SDA) and is thus available free of charge to the German research community via the EOWEB® geoportal https://eoweb.dlr.de/egp/.

德国布兰登堡的RapidEye AG公司于2008年8月29日成功将五颗卫星送入轨道，这些卫星能够在一天之内对准地球上的任何一点。这些数据对众多大小型企业均具吸引力，其应用范围涵盖从收获规划到自然灾害保险索赔评估等。通过Rapid Eye科学档案（RESA），科学用户可以免费获取RapidEye卫星编队的光学影像数据。影像的分配基于通过RESA门户提交的提案，该提案将由独立专家进行评估。所有RESA数据均存储在德国卫星数据档案（D-SDA）中，因此德国科研界可通过EOWEB®地理信息门户https://eoweb.dlr.de/egp/免费获取。
