MUSCATE 20 – COVID 19

Yes, so far MUSCATE is winning against COVID !

MUSCATE is THEIA land data production center in CNES. Although everyone in the production and development team is working from home, in good health so far, the production is still on, as you may see on the counters. We even passed the 10 000 products milestone on Landsat 8 (we produce France and overseas territories only), and the next milestone should be for Sentinel-2 : 200 000.

We should thank a lot the production team, because it must be quite hard to manage, with the small screens of laptops and the reduced network bandwidth  at home. Thanks ! The production team even added a new Sentinel-2 site, the whole Madagascar island, but it is worth another post.

The missing link to valorize CESBIO’s applicative research works

=>  My colleagues at CESBIO are extremely creative! Over the past ten years, they have developed a wide range of new products and methods for extracting information from Copernicus data. They don’t just develop and validate the method on a few sites; they continue their work until they have produced data for the whole of […]

Le chaînon manquant dans la valorisation des travaux de recherche en télédétection

=> Mes collègues du CESBIO sont très créatifs ! Ils ont mis au point, au cours des dix dernières années, un grand nombre de nouveaux produits et de méthodes d’extraction de l’information à partir des données Copernicus (Sentinel-1 et 2). Et bien souvent, ils ne s’arrêtent pas à la mise au point de la méthode […]

Sentinel-2 overtakes Landsat in scientific litterature

OpenAlex is a new, yet already very useful, open database for exploring scientific literature. For an upcoming blog post on the CNES Datacampus website, I analysed the proportion of papers that used only one of the Sentinel-2 or Landsat missions, as well as those that used both, in 2025. What struck me was that Sentinel-2 […]
