Abstract :
The Copernicus Global Land Service is the achievement of more than 10 years of European R&D activities. It provides historic and NRT biophysical products useful for a wide range of applications. Its continuity and its evolution are ensured by the current research and innovation projects which are preparing the use of new EO missions data, including the future ESA Sentinels data.
