Earth Observation Remote Sensing Tools—Assessing Systems, Trends, and Characteristics

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), in partnership with the Joint Agency Commercial Imagery Evaluation (JACIE), has launched the Earth Observing Satellites Online Compendium, an accessible web database for remote sensing satellite information. This interactive tool allows users to search satellite data by parameters such as spectral resolution, launch year, and system specifications, and provides links to JACIE assessments for data verification.
