A detailed description of the dataset has been published as a data paper to the MDPI Data journal.

The idea of SEN2VENµS comes from the Sentinel-HR phase-0 study : search for conjonctions between VENµS and Sentinel-2, i.e. images acquired on the same site and on the same day. During the phase-0, we used a reduced dataset involving 5 VENµS sites for a total of 11 105 patches. In SEN2VENµS we extended the search to 29 VENµS sites for which Theia produces Sentinel-2 L2A products, yielding a high landscape variability. Altogether, 132 955 triplets of patches have been generated: for a VENµS patch of 256×256 pixels at 5 meter resolution, containing bands corresponding to Sentinel-2 B2, B3, B4, B5, B6, B7, B8 and B8A, we have a Sentinel-2 patch of 128×128 pixels at 10 meter resolution containing bands B2, B3, B4, B8, as well as a Sentinel-2 patch of 64×64 pixels at 20 meter resolution containing bands B5, B6, B7 and B8A. Uncompressed, the dataset reaches no less than 116 Go!

This dataset can of course be used for training and evaluation of classical Single Image Super-Resolution approaches (SISR), it will also allow to develop and evaluate methods tailored for Sentinel-2, allowing to jointly bring 10 meter and 20 meter bands to 5 meter resolution.

SEN2VENµS is avaiable as an open dataset on Zenodo  with the licencing of the original products (Etalab Open Licence Version 2.0 for Sentinel-2 L2A products from Theia and Creative Commons BY-NC 4.0 for VENµS products from Theia).

Dates de fauche en France

En 2024, des collègues du Cesbio ont publié un article* sur la cartographie de la date de fauche en France en 2022 à partir des données satellitaires Sentinel-2.   Leur magnifique figure 10 a attiré mon attention. La version à haute résolution fournie avec l’article (2861 × 2911 pixels) correspond à une image dont les pixels font […]

Évolution du jour de déneigement dans les Alpes françaises et les Pyrénées

Les socio-écosystèmes des Alpes et des Pyrénées dépendent étroitement des fluctuations annuelles du manteau neigeux. En particulier, le moment de l’année où la neige disparait détermine le début de la saison de croissance de la végétation de montagne et donc la période des estives. Le changement climatique est en train de bouleverser ce rythme saisonnier. […]

BIOMASS, the third launched satellite mission designed at CESBIO !

After SMOS in 2009, and VENµS in 2017, the CESBIO laboratory is very proud to see its third proposed mission, Biomass, reach orbit. As always, it has been a long journey from the idea, at the beginning of the century, to the selection in 2013 as the seventh Earth Explorer Mission by ESA, to the […]
