CODE-DE: The German access to Copernicus data
CODE-DE has been providing easy access to data from the Copernicus Mission since 2017. Especially for authorities and their contractors, the CODE-DE Cloud offers contingents for free access to satellite data and to the efficient processing environment. The allocation of the contingents is done on request and is prioritised according to user categories if necessary.
- Category 1: German federal authorities and their contractors
- Category 2: German state authorities, municipalities and their contractors
- Category 3: German research institutions and other non-commercial organisations
- Category 4: All those who do not fall into one of the other categories. Examples are users who are not from Germany, students and private users.
All interested parties can apply for a starter quota to familiarize themselves with the CODE-DE Cloud.
