Environmental Descriptors
View the wide range of environmental descriptors describing the land, marine and atmosphere at multiple spatial and temporal scales for Wales, many of which have been provided through Earth observations.
Ground Measurements
Ground measurements are essential for developing algorithms for retrieving environmental variables from Earth observation data and for validating land cover and change classifications. Find out how to collect ground measurements but also view and download some of our current collections, which include those in near real time. If you would like to contribute ground data,…
Remote Sensing Algorithms
A range of satellite data based products are available globally and/or regionally. The products provide valuable spatiotemporal information for a range of environmental descriptors, including Leaf Area Index (LAI), canopy height (m), Net Primary Productivity (NPP) and phenology. The following details algorithms that are existing or have been developed through Living Wales to retrieve…
