EOLI

EOLI is a multi-satellite tool which offers easy standardised access to various Earth observation resources such as image catalogues, product ordering functions and image acquisition request deposit tools.

ESA standard

The European Space Agency (ESA) commissioned Telespazio VEGA to develop EOLI, which is now used as ESA's standard tool for accessing all of ESA’s Earth observation data services.

Easy to use

The design of the EOLI interface with the remote catalogues allows an easy add-on of new catalogue data, or new online service. The multi-mission catalogue includes not only ESA collections, but also collections from other suppliers such as Spotimage
Astrium, Ikonos and Landsat.

EOLI makes it easy for a user to find data by allowing complex queries, searching many sources at the same time, while viewing either in 2D or 3D search results over a background of OpenGIS layers (compliant with WMS/WFS, OGC standards) as well as ESRI shape files, Keyhole’s KML.

Using World Wind

Telespazio VEGA and ESA have chosen NASA World Wind technology because of the ease of its integration within the EOLI client, its reliability and 3D capabilities. World Wind module makes it possible to obtain a 3D visualisation of the globe. Users can search, select and appreciate their choice with great ease and freedom.

Benefits of EOLI

• Wider EO catalogue choice
• New catalogues or providers can be added when available
• Providers can tune EOLI to their product processing systems
• Enables easier image interpretation and selection
• Easily editable by users and providers
• Multiple export formats

Telespazio VEGA proposes additional modules to complete the client system and satisfy its need by re-using EOLI’s several generic features. In the future, EOLI will support HMA (Heterogeneous Missions Accessibility) standard.
