2010 Campaign

• Benchmarking of new sensors: WV2, DMC2, Theos, and Pleiades

• Pls send shapefiles & ancillary data by 31/12/2009

– template will be sent to you asap after Taormina (see next slide)

• 2010 VHR will see approx. equal distribution of GE1/IK2, and WV2/QB2, continued few zones of Kompsat2 (?), Cartosat2(?)

– VHR prime can be closed by VHR backup if contractor can performadequate controls (e.g. PL Campaign 2009)

• 2010 HR no SPOT2, maybe L5 (?), upon positive benchmarking DMC2, Theos, and an increase of RE, and F2

• 2010 Campaign already started:

– 62 autumn zones (BE, FR, DE, IE)

– 40 windows open

– 1 window failed

– 21 images acquired

• for more information on 2010 Campaign, see next presentation.

CwRS windows - efficient management (1)

We need MS Administrations’/contractors’ input during campaign for the best management of:

• Extensions in general• Latest closing date for HR-1 (normally when VHR prime opens, should we extend?• Earliest / Latest opening date for HR+1 (normally 2 weeks “dead period” after VHR

acquisition, if VHR is early, or late please give a date)• The template needs to be completed


CwRS windows - efficient management (2)• Template will be sent to you after Taormina, deadline for return 31/12/2009

• Template content:– Choice of sensors (VHR, HR) (see next slide)– VHR window: start date, end date (or length), product (pan, bundle, pansharp), – Delivery mode (FTP, DVD)– Comments– HR windows: start date, length, dead period – No. of HR windows after VHR window– Parameters will be set for:

Latest closing date for HR-1Earliest / Latest opening date for HR+1

– Delivery mode (FTP, DVD), – Comments

• Shape file (lat/long, WGS84)
