2022-09-29 - timeStamp: Control of area-related measures

Use of Copernicus data for the verification of area-based measures

Using the example of the greening catch crops of the EU's Common Agricultural Policy, Ms Ackermann, Mr Braumann and Mr Klinke explain the use of Coperncius data for testing measure areas and monitoring changes in use. The timeStamp application enables authorities and interested users to obtain area-specific inspection information for field inspections or other on-site visits, or to identify changes in use by means of index time series.

Time: 13:30 Uhr
Duration: 60 minutes
Language: German

Agenda

1. Welcome: Dr Michael Schmidt, DLR
2. Introduction: The timeStamp project and the resulting application platform (Andrea Ackermann)
3. Use of timeStamp in area monitoring of greening catch crops and changes in use (Stefan Braumann)
4. Copernicus data in area monitoring (Randolf Klinke)
5. Development of the platform and expansion with new application modules (Stefan Braumann)
6. Discussion, questions and answers

Areas of application for timeStamp

• Greening catch crops
• Area monitoring
• Agriculture
• Change of use
• Nature conservation

Background

The control of area-related measures in agricultural promotion and nature conservation is currently mostly carried out through time-consuming and cost-intensive physical on-site inspections. By using sentinel satellite data, agricultural and nature conservation authorities should be able to reduce these controls in the area of area monitoring in the future. In addition to the lack of suitable infrastructure for data retrieval, analysis and thematic evaluation of remote sensing data, the lack of processing capacities for the large amounts of data delays the integration of satellite data into the workflows of administrative authorities.

The timeStamp application was developed as part of the DLR funding programme 'Development and implementation preparation of Copernicus services for public use in Germany' and made available to users on CODE-DE. GFZ, LUP, JKI, RLP AgroScience, TU-Berlin and Thünen Institute are involved in the development.

The web application is designed as a platform into which different application modules can be integrated. The modular structure of the application allows for an adaptable extension of functions and integration into the internal infrastructure of the authority. The scope of functions and performance of the system are freely expandable due to the modular structure. Targeted analyses and checks of any kind can be programmed and integrated into the infrastructure in the future without great effort via a plug-in system.

Registered participants will receive the access data for the webinar one day before the event. If you have not received the access data by the day of the training, please call CODE-DE Support on: +49 89 121 910 90

2022-10-20 - Elastically scalable data processing with Kubernetes

Using the example of the creation of cloud-free Sentinel-2 data at county level, it is shown how elastically scalable data processing can be realised with Kubernetes on CODE-DE.

The LGLN (Landesamt für Geoinformation und Landesvermessung Niedersachsen) wants to simplify access to Sentinel-2 data for other state authorities – and beyond. The developed product "Cloud-free Sentinel-2 counties" allows a very uncomplicated access to the latest cloud-free Sentinel-2 images and data products derived from them.

In the first part of the webinar, Dr. Jonas Bostelmann will present how the data for all districts, counties and independent cities in Germany are automatically generated and what options there are for retrieving the data or integrating it into your own applications.

In the second part of the webinar, Maik Fischer will go into detail about the technical implementation and show the optimal use of CODE-DE resources with Kubernetes.

Date: 20.10.2022
Time: 13:30h - 16:30h
30 min (part 1) + 90 min (part 2)

**Agenda**

1. Welcome & Moderation: Patricia Salort y Gerber
2. Introduction and overview: Jonas Bostelmann
3. Creating Kubernetes clusters on CODE-DE: Maik Fischer
4. Farewell: Dr Michael Schmidt

2022-11-15 - CODE-DE platform with ESRI technology: High-performance work with large amounts of data

Efficient use of ArcGIS Pro on CODE-DE

This webinar is aimed at people interested in CODE-DE who are already using ArcGIS Pro and would also like to integrate it into the CODE-DE environment.

Date: 15.11.2022
Time: 10:00h
Duration: 60 minutes
Language: German

Lecturers: Dr Michael Schmidt, Ms Patricia Salort y Gerber, Mr Ralf Schüpferling

Note: The webinar will be held by ESRI using the Zoom video conferencing tool. We will post the link to the webinar registration on the ESRI website as soon as it is available.

Background

CODE-DE is more than just Sentinel data. It is a Frankfurt-hosted cloud platform for authorities and organisations that provides fast and direct access to an infrastructure. It consists of state-of-the-art hardware, data and software components.

With virtual machines on which ArcGIS Pro has already been set up, authorities can work directly on huge amounts of data with high performance, without the need for a complicated data download.

In this webinar we will introduce the CODE-DE platform and give an overview of the available infrastructure, the Esri technology ArcGIS Pro and the ArcGIS Image Analyst. We use highly topical examples to show how drastically the forest in the Harz has changed in the past two years.
