PROBA-V Products
PROBA-V data products are available at various levels: Level 1C data comprise unprojected Top-of-Atmosphere (TOA) reflectances, while Level 2A data consist of projected segment TOA observations. Finally, the Level 3 data products are 10-day or 5-day Top-of-Canopy (TOC) composites, and 1-day TOA and TOC composites. Figure 1 shows the processing streams for the various PROBA-V data product levels.
Please note that PROBA-V’s operational phase has ended as of 30 June 2020, the data coverage beyond this date is limited to Europe and Africa and is for scientific/experimental use only. As per 31 October 2021, this experimental phase ended and PROBA-V’s instruments were switched off.
Collection 2, which includes among others improvements in the cloud and snow/ice detection, improved atmospheric correction, radiometric improvements, as well as updated data and metadata formats, was released in March 2023. Collection 2 contains the entire archive spanning 16 October 2013 - 30 June 2020. All relevant information and documentation, inluding the evaluation report and Product User Manual, is available on the PROBA-V website. Detailed information on algorithm changes in Collection 2 is available here.
PROBA-V L1C: radiometrically corrected raw data, given per strip/camera, HDF format - Collection 2
Radiometrically corrected Level 1B data (i.e. unprojected TOA reflectance), given per strip/camera. Pixel digital numbers are converted to radiance values. Image remains in raw sensor geometry (unprojected). The spatial resolution varies between 100 and 300 for VNIR and between 200 and 600 for SWIR.
