The European Ground Motion Service (EGMS) is a component of the Copernicus Land Monitoring Service. EGMS provides consistent, regular, standardised, harmonised and reliable information regarding natural and anthropogenic ground motion phenomena over the Copernicus Participating States and across national borders, with millimetre accuracy. This set of metadata describes the third product level of EGMS: Ortho. The EGMS Ortho product exploits the information provided by ascending and descending orbits of the Calibrated product (https://sdi.eea.europa.eu/catalogue/srv/eng/catalog.search#/metadata/8889e0a7-a6df-47a8-b4e7-a9cb32cbbf6b) to derive two further layers; one of purely vertical displacements (the one described by this metadata), the other of purely east-west displacements. Both layers are resampled to a 100 m grid. The Ortho product eases the interpretation process of non-experts since the viewing geometry has not to be considered anymore. EGMS Ortho is visualised as a vector map of measurement points colour-coded by average velocity (vertical or east-west components) and distributed to users in comma-separated values format. Each point is associated with a time series of displacement, i.e. a plot with values of displacement per acquisition of the satellite.

EGMS provides consistent, regular, standardised, harmonised and reliable information regarding natural and anthropogenic ground motion phenomena over the Copernicus Participating States and across national borders, with millimetre accuracy. This set of metadata describes the second product level of EGMS: Calibrated. This product is considered the main EGMS product as it serves the needs of most users. It contains the same type of information as the Basic product (https://sdi.eea.europa.eu/catalogue/srv/eng/catalog.search#/metadata/7eb207d6-0a62-4280-b1ca-f4ad1d9f91c3), but the measurement points are referenced to a model derived from global navigation satellite system data. Thus, the measurements are not relative anymore and are considered as absolute. The calibrated product makes it possible to compare ground motion measurements from adjacent areas belonging to different products of the same level. EGMS Calibrated is visualised as a vector map of measurement points, colour-coded by average velocity, and distributed to users in comma-separated values format. Each point is associated with a time series of displacement, i.e. a plot with values of displacement per acquisition of the satellite. The product is generated for both ascending and descending orbits.

This metadata refers to CLMS N2K 2006 product, the Copernicus Land Cover/Land Use (LC/LU) status map, with 2006 as reference year for the classification, tailored to the needs of biodiversity monitoring in selected Natura2000 sites: 4790 sites of natural and semi-natural grassland formations listed in Annex I of the Habitats Directive, including a 2 km buffer zone surrounding the sites and covering an area of 631.820 km² across Europe (EU27, the United Kingdom and Switzerland). The product includes three Emerald sites in Switzerland. LC/LU has been extracted from VHR satellite data and other available data. This metadata specifically refers to the revision of the 2006 N2K status map carried out during the production of the 2018 update. The production of N2K updates was coordinated by the European Environment Agency (EEA) in the frame of the EU Copernicus programme. You can read more about the product here: https://land.copernicus.eu/en/products/n2k/n2k-2006.

The European Ground Motion Service (EGMS) is a component of the Copernicus Land Monitoring Service. EGMS provides consistent, regular, standardised, harmonised and reliable information regarding natural and anthropogenic ground motion phenomena over the Copernicus Participating States and across national borders, with millimetre accuracy. This set of metadata describes the first product level of EGMS: Basic. The EGMS Basic - provides InSAR displacement data provided in the satellite Line-of-Sight (LOS), with annotated geo-localisation and quality measures per measurement point. This product is generated from the interferometric analysis of Sentinel-1 radar images at full resolution. It contains line of sight velocity maps in ascending and descending orbits with annotated geolocalisation and quality parameters per measurement point. The Basic product is referred to a local reference point; therefore, ground motion measurements are meaningful only within a small subset of the full product. It is not possible to compare deformation from adjacent areas belonging to different processing units of the same level. EGMS Basic is visualised as a vector map of measurement points colour-coded by average line-of-sight velocity and distributed to users in comma-separated values format. Each point is associated with a time series of displacement, i.e. a plot with values of displacement per acquisition of the satellite. The product is generated for both ascending and descending orbits. The processing of the dataset has taken place in the period from March 2024 to October 2024.

This metadata refers to the Copernicus Building Height 2012 third version. The dataset is a 10m high resolution raster layer containing height information generated for selected cities and urban areas in the EEA38 member countries and United Kingdom as part of the Urban atlas suite of products. Height information is based on satellite data and derived datasets like the digital surface model (DSM), the digital terrain model (DTM) and the normalized DSM. The satellite data sources are IRS-P5 stereo images for the capital cities and VHR false stereo pairs extracted from the MAXAR catalogue (WV-01, WV-02, GE-01 and IK) for the remaining areas supplemented by LiDAR data as additional option.
