RapidEye Analytic Ortho Tiles
The RapidEye Analytic Ortho Tile product is orthorectified, multispectral data from the RapidEye satellite constellation. This product is designed for a wide variety of applications that require imagery with an accurate geolocation and cartographic projection. It has been processed to remove distortions caused by terrain and can be used for many data science and analytic applications. It eliminates the perspective effect on the ground (not on buildings), restoring the geometry of a vertical shot. The orthorectified imagery is optimal for value-added image processing including vegetation indices, land cover classifications, etc. In addition to orthorectification, the imagery has radiometric corrections applied to correct for any sensor artifacts and transformation to at-sensor radiance.
