Based on the datasets released earlier, which consist of typical datasets such as soil moisture, surface reflectance, leaf area index, water remote sensing reflectance, and aerosol optical thickness, the platform added three types of ground survey data such as apparent radiance, suspended matter concentration, and land cover types.
Since its launch this September, the platform has been updated in terms of data sharing service, quality inspection and assurance for data products, and is expected to fully exert its potential for delicacy application of space-based remote sensing data products.
The CAPLOS was launched in September by the National Engineering Research Center for Remote Sensing Satellite Application, marking that China has built a large validation and calibration station network for the common technology applications of remote sensing satellite data products.
The platform consists of 48 stations networking for validation of optical/microwave satellite products and six comprehensive experimental sites, capable of high-precision data processing and common technology services for more than 24 satellite data products, which can be applied in multiple fields such as ecosystem, agriculture, natural resources, and disaster prevention and reduction.
The platform will also continue to update and expand typical shared datasets for ground datasets to provide more one-stop service functions for users.

Geophysicist Leigh Royden looks at Earth from the top down
Boston MA (SPX) Nov 03, 2022
The German Academy of Sciences Leopoldina has counted some of the greatest scientists in history among its ranks. Founded in 1652, and named in honor of the Holy Roman Emperor Leopold I, the scientific organization has included among its members Marie Curie, Albert Einstein, Alexander von Humboldt, and Charles Darwin, to name a few. But when Department of Earth, Atmospheric and Planetary Science (EAPS) professor Leigh "Wiki" Royden was elected to the Leopoldina, she was less impressed by its most ... read more
