Chapter 22

Data production and management system

Abstract

This chapter describes the production and management of high-level remote sensing data products. The data production system provides task management, algorithm execution, data quality inspection, and system monitoring functions. An overview of the ground segment system is presented. For a very long time, Earth observation agencies have played a major role in remote sensing data management. The Google Earth Engine system consists of four main parts—a data management system, computing engine system, programming interface, and user interface system—which dramatically accelerates the research efficiency for remote sensing scientists.
