up42 Data Documentation
website·Indexed 35 days ago
https://docs.up42.com/Documentation for the up42 geospatial data catalog, covering data acquisition, delivery, and technical specifications for various satellite, aerial, and drone imagery providers including Airbus, Capella Space, GHGSat, and others. Includes details on digital elevation models (DEM), multispectral and hyperspectral imagery, geometric processing levels, and catalog management.
What's inside up42
- Cloud bucket upload automatically copies CNAM-transformed data items from UP42 storage to a customer-owned Amazon S3 bucket. This feature is available exclusively to Enterprise plan accounts. Once configured, every new data item appearing in UP42 storage is automatically copied to the bucket; however, data items existing prior to setup are not uploaded retroactively.
Overview of Airbus Global Basemap data products
Airbus provides very high resolution global basemaps designed for visualization and simulation solutions. The data is derived from Pléiades Neo, Pléiades, and SPOT satellites and is available globally.Overview of the API processing workflow
The API processing workflow allows users to run advanced processing (Enhancement or Analytics) on tasking and catalog data stored in their account. The general workflow consists of four main steps: 1. Getting access to a process, 2. Finding compatible data, 3. Configuring and running the job, and 4. Monitoring the status and downloading assets.Overview of up42 Geometries
In up42, a geometry is an Area of Interest (AOI) or a Point of Interest (POI) used to create tasking or catalog orders. To avoid redefining the same area for multiple orders, geometries can be saved to a library and reused.Overview of Vivid Terrain elevation data
Vivid Terrain provides global Digital Surface Models (DSM) and Digital Terrain Models (DTM) generated from Vantor imagery. The datasets cover the period from 2007 to the present and offer a resolution of 0.5 meters (50 cm).Overview of Pléiades Neo satellite imagery
Pléiades Neo imagery is acquired by very high resolution multispectral satellites (Pléiades Neo 3 and 4) with daily global coverage. Catalog datasets are available starting from November 2021. The data is provided by Airbus.Overview of Vexcel Elevate 3D terrain datasets
Vexcel Elevate provides global 3D terrain datasets for the USA, Canada, Western and Eastern Europe, and Oceania. These datasets are collected simultaneously with Vexcel Aerial imagery, ensuring a pixel-to-pixel match between aerial images and elevation data for high-accuracy calculations.Overview of Airbus Ground Control Points (GCPs)
Airbus Ground Control Points (GCPs) provide high-accuracy geolocation data for infrastructure features such as buildings, traffic signs, and light poles. These points are used for orthorectification, geospatial data processing, and validation. The data is derived from TerraSAR-X satellite imagery and has global geographic coverage.Overview of Bluesky Elevation data products
Bluesky provides elevation data generated from Bluesky Aerial imagery covering the UK. The available data products include Digital Surface Models (DSM) and Digital Terrain Models (DTM). These are non-integrated data products available in the following resolutions:
- DSM 25 cm
- DSM 2 m
- DTM 5 m
Overview of SPOT satellite imagery
SPOT imagery is acquired by high-resolution multispectral satellites every 3 days globally. Catalog datasets are available starting from 2012. The data is provided by Airbus and is available via both Tasking (starting from 280 credits per km²) and Catalog (starting from 200 credits per km²).Overview of Pléiades satellite imagery
Pléiades imagery is provided by Airbus via two very high resolution multispectral satellites (Pléiades 1A and 1B). Data is acquired daily globally, with catalog datasets available from 2012 onwards.Overview of UP42 WMTS streaming
Web Map Tile Service (WMTS) allows users to generate raster map layers composed of pre-rendered image tiles to optimize map display across multiple zoom levels in GIS applications.
Availability: WMTS streaming is available exclusively to Enterprise plan accounts.
