TL;DR: The first-ever calibrated satellite radiometer designed for night lights is used to show that from 2012 to 2016, Earth’s artificially lit outdoor area grew by 2.2% per year, with a total radiance growth of 1.8% peryear.

TL;DR: An overview of the main characteristics and current status of the EnMAP mission is provided, which will contribute to the development and exploitation of spaceborne imaging spectroscopy applications by making high-quality data freely available to scientific users worldwide.

TL;DR: Analysis of the intermediate and final EeteS simulation products has shown the accurate, reliable and consistent performance of the developed modules enabling the system to support technical decision-making processes required for the development of the EnMAP sensor.

TL;DR: The presented Sentinel-2 end-to-end simulation (S2eteS) software models Sentinel-1 data acquisition, sensor calibration, and data preprocessing, which are strongly oriented on the real system and hold the possibility to simulate other similar multispectral sensors because of its generic design.

TL;DR: The results show that the virtual cereal canopies are re-created in a realistic way, and it is possible to model their detailed canopy bidirectional reflectance and their BRDF using HySimCaR.
