Earth Observation Data Cubes for Brazil

Description

Earth observation (EO) data cubes produced from analysis-ready data (ARD) of CBERS-4, Sentinel-2 A/B and Landsat-8 satellite images for Brazil. The datacubes are regular in time and use a hierarchical tiling system. Further details are described in Ferreira et al. (2020).

Update Frequency

New EO data cubes are added as soon as there are produced by the Brazil Data Cube project.

License

The EO data cubes are produced from free and open images of CBERS-4, Landsat-8 and Sentinel-2 satellites. Data usage is subject to Terms and Conditions for the use and distribution of Landsat data, Legal Notice on the use and distribution of Sentinel-2 data and License for use and distribution of CBERS data. When using data produced by the Brazil Data Cube, please acknowledge the work of the Brazilian National Institute for Space Research (INPE) in producing such data.
