Back in April CDSE has announced that the STAC API is online:

https://dataspace.copernicus.eu/news/2023-4-20-discover-our-new-services

The (somewhat rudimentary) documentation says it has still some limitations but basic search with PySTAC should work:

https://documentation.dataspace.copernicus.eu/APIs/STAC.html

Not sure if this indeed the case at the moment:

Am I missing something?

I should add that I’m completely biased since I lead the team producing the Raster Product. But if you ask me, I really believe that it sets a new standard and is far superior to comparable products such as global maps from ESRI and Google. We are now working on the 2021 edition and certainly need to catch up in terms of timeliness … but good things take time even in the age of apparently unlimited compute and data!

Yeaaah! CLC+ Backbone 2018 got finally announced on the Copernicus Land website; the Raster Product is ready for viewing and download:
https://land.copernicus.eu/pan-european/clc-plus/clc-backbone
- 2 years of Sentinel-2 time series (2018+- 6m), 10m resolution, 11 classes, deep learning + regional and expert-in-the-loop calibration
- the project internal validation (plausibility analysis) suggests > 90% OA!
You don’t believe in internal validations? … go and see for yourself! #RemoteSensing #EOchat #Geospatial #EarthObservation

Yeaaah, the new Copernicus Data Space Ecosystem is online (since 23 January?) and open for registration: https://dataspace.copernicus.eu

Registration seems to work smoothly and download of Sentinel-2 L2A as early as of 2016 only takes a few seconds (i.e. no cold archive)... the roadmap also is full of goodies like STAC, processing API, full Sentinel archive, still this year!

Breaking news from the world of Physics - simulations of wormholes on quantum computers tend to collapse to incredibly small quantum ducks once they attracted a critical mass of media attention 😉

The Orion spacecraft, after an assist by moon's gravity, is now on it's trajectory back to earth: https://www.nasa.gov/specials/trackartemis/

Surprisingly the communication with the spacecraft seems to consume quite a bit of bandwidth of the Deep Space Network which apparently creates bottlenecks for getting data from the JWST telescope:

Pinch me! ESA is finally starting the reprocessing campaign of the full Sentinel-2 archive 🥳 : https://sentinels.copernicus.eu/web/sentinel/-/sentinel-2-processing-baseline-05-deployment-on-06-december-1

This will mean better co-registration, atmospheric correction and cloud masks consistently across the entire time-series. Twist... they say when they start (6/12) but not yet when they will finish 🤔

Chez Krömer - Season 7

For me still the most original and most underrated piece of comedy (interrogation show?) that German television has generated so far: https://www.ardmediathek.de/sendung/chez-kroemer/staffel-7/Y3JpZDovL3JiYi1vbmxpbmUuZGUvY2hlei1rcm9lbWVy/7

Still don't get why some conservative and/or dubious characters still agree to join the show just to get completely taken apart.. hilarious 😂 ...

- Scandinavia is still recovering from the "depressing" 2km layer of ice that vanished at the end of the last ice age and keeps raising at rates between of 3-10mm/ year: https://egms.land.copernicus.eu/#llh=16.71829868,63.42785080,1207578.35819109&look=-0.12868020,-0.89437178,-0.42841630&right=0.98943957,-0.08672733,-0.11613659&up=-0.06671389,0.43883651,-0.89608692&layers=VHR%20Image%20Mosaic%202012_VHR%20Image%20Mosaic%202012-Image-parent,L3-U-release-oct22

These examples were already known and well studied before but having such precise and systematic measurements now available for everyone is still quite a leap.
