1 INTRODUCTION
The Data Access Portfolio Document (DAP) defines the datasets that are made available to the Copernicus Users in response to their Earth Observation data requirements, for a certain period of time, and the conditions (i.e. data licensing, product types available, delivery timelines, data access mechanisms) under which they are accessible. It is therefore the baseline for implementation of the Copernicus Space Component Data Access (CSC-DA) Services. This data and services (including licensing) offer is based on agreements with the Copernicus Contributing Mission Entities (CCMEs). In case of a Mission failure or temporary unavailability, ESA will provide backup solutions or temporary replacements where feasible. Up-to-date information and operational Mission news is available on the CSC-DA Web portal at https://copernicusdata.esa.int/. This version of the DAP informs the Copernicus users about the CORE datasets that will be procured under this new Data Warehouse phase (acquisitions partly done in 2014) and the envelope of quota per dataset allocated to authorised users within ADDITIONAL Datasets until 31 December 2105. The document also addresses access to the datasets already procured under the previous Data Access phases. Information on the implementation status of all datasets, updated on a monthly basis, is available on the CSC-DA Web portal.

3 COPERNICUS SPACE COMPONENT
The Copernicus Space Component (CSC), operated by ESA, represents the main geo- spatial resource for the Copernicus programme; it relies on a constellation of dedicated missions - the Sentinels - as well as on a set of EO space missions not dedicated to Copernicus but contributing to it according to agreed operational scenarios and service levels for a harmonised data provision to the Copernicus users.
As of 2015, access to data from 60 European and international space missions operated by national agencies or commercial entities will be granted to eligible Copernicus users. Since 2014, the dedicated Sentinel-1 mission developed by ESA has enlarged significantly the overall operational Earth Observation capability needed to support the Copernicus users.
3.1 Resolution Classes All missions of the Space Component are classified primarily by sensor type (SAR or Optical) but also by resolution classes defined as follows: - VHR1 Very High Resolution 1 where resolution <=1m - VHR2 Very High Resolution 2 where 1m < resolution <=4m - HR1 High Resolution 1 where 4m

3.2 Copernicus Dedicated Sentinel-1 Mission Sentinel-1 is the first of the six dedicated satellite mission families that ESA is developing for the Copernicus programme. It comprises a constellation of two polar- orbiting satellites, performing C-band SAR imaging. Sentinel-1A is approaching routine phase (planned for early June 2015) while Sentinel-1B is scheduled for launch in 2016. Full operations capacity of the mission with the two satellites in orbit is expected by end 2016. Sentinel-1C and -1D are currently being procured and are planned to continue the series. Sentinel-1 predefined observation scenario supporting Copernicus monitoring services, aims at producing a consistent long-term data archive built for applications based on long time series. It is published at https://sentinel.esa.int/web/sentinel/missions /sentinel-1/observation-scenario. Data processing is systematic and the data are made available online.
Since October 3rd 2014, Sentinel-1A data are available as follows: - Systematic processing of acquisitions over MyOcean areas of interest and delivery in a dedicated repository (NRT3h for agreed priority areas); - Fast24 production worldwide in the scientific data hub (http://scihub.esa.int) for contribution to the HR2-MR1_SAR_GLOBAL CORE dataset and to HR2/MR1 ADDITIONAL datasets. On-line registration is required for all users.
Access to archived data will be made available through specific means, starting gradually mid-2015.
3.3 Copernicus Contributing Missions The table below presents the list of Data Warehouse Phase 2 Copernicus Contributing Missions, divided per mission type (SAR/Optical/Atmospheric) and, in addition, for the Optical missions, per resolution class. The missions in italic will be available at a later stage, when launched or integrated into the CSC-DA.

4 CORE DATASETS
They are the fixed part of the data offer, typically pre-defined large coverages, identified to cover the needs of the Copernicus services and other activities requesting Earth Observation data, like Union financed research projects and the activities of Union agencies (EEA, EMSA, SatCen, etc.). CORE datasets are characterised by fixed tasking, systematic or not, data processing and delivery timeliness parameters defined in the dataset description below.
4.1 Overview of CORE datasets Table 3 provides the list of the CORE datasets to be delivered by the Copernicus Missions within Data Warehouse phase 2 (2014-2020).

5 ADDITIONAL DATASETS
The ADDITIONAL Datasets are the on-demand part of the data offer, assumed flexible enough to accommodate the specific requirements which are not covered by the CORE datasets and not foreseeable in advance. They represent a large volume of EO data classified by resolution type to cover a range of specifications by Copernicus users, e.g. geographical area, processing levels, lead times, delivery mechanisms to be selected at ordering time among the proposed ones for the specific dataset. They are typically related to emergency and security services which require fresh data over critical areas. However on-demand ADDITIONAL data are available also for non- emergency applications, for which requirement details are only known at short notice (e.g. areas of interest, time window of interest, data type, etc.).
The eligibility of Copernicus users to order EO data under a given Additional dataset is established by the European Commission who assigns a quota expressed in Km2 per data type on a yearly basis (see quota assignment section 6.2). The allocation per project for the year 2015 is reported in section 6.2.3.
The content of ADDITIONAL datasets is organized per resolution class and the relevant portfolio of missions offered for both Emergency and Standard modes is described in section 5.3.
5.1 List of ADDITIONAL datasets Each dataset represents: - A resolution class (see section 3.1), - A service type: Emergency or Standard, Archive or New tasking - A mission type: Optical or SAR
Table 5 presents the list of datasets which content in terms of contributing missions is described in section 5.2.

6 EO DATA ORDERING WITHIN ADDITIONAL DATASETS 6.1 Order parameters During an order submission, authorised users have to properly identify their requirements within the list of order options so that the Services Coordinated Interfaces (SCI) is able to select the best contributing mission to fulfill the order. Selected parameters (add-ons) may be subject to a cost uplift if different from the baseline which then result in a higher quota consumption. A matrix highlighting differences between baseline and add-on options is shown in Table 16.
While the dataset selection provides the information about data type, resolution class and service type, AOI, time window and the following order parameters have to be selected at order submission time: • Satellite Tasking lead time (for new acquisitions) • Processing Options • Cloud Coverage Class • SAR Polarisation • Delivery timeliness

6.1.1 Size of Minimum Orderable Area The different data providers accept any area of interest (AOI) but a minimum order size and an incremental area extension is applied when delivering and invoicing a product. Therefore user quota will be impacted accordingly.
• If the AOI defined by the user is smaller than the minimum order size, the latter applies systematically and the corresponding number of km2 are deducted from the user available quota.
• If the ordered AOI is bigger than the minimum order size, incremental area will apply up to full coverage of the AOI.
Details of the specific values per Mission, instrument mode and product type are indicated in table 17.

6.1.2 Satellite Tasking lead time Each order for data to be acquired in the future shall contain a target acquisition window which defines the programming notice. The list of tasking lead times and corresponding definitions is shown in the table below. “Normal” lead time is the default scenario for standard requests while “Rush” is reserved for emergency activations. Selection of SLT or SLT+ through the tasking window definition may imply an additional cost and therefore a larger quota consumption. It is to be noted that the order processing time is up to 2 days that are added to the programming notice, except for orders within emergency datasets.
Long Lead time (LLT) Request notice : > 1 month prior to acquisition window start time Normal lead time (NLT) Default option for standard orders Request notice: between 1 month and 2 weeks prior to acquisition window start time Short Lead Time (SLT) Request notice : between 2 weeks and 4 days prior to acquisition window start time Short Lead Time Plus (SLT+) Offered for Standard Orders. Acquisition to be performed between 48 and 72 hours from order submission to CCME Rush Only for emergency orders. Acquisition to be performed within 48 hours

from order submission by eligible user
6.1.3 Processing Options Different types of product and processing levels offered for each mission are based on the default list of products generated by the Copernicus Contributing Missions. The following options are generally possible:
• For radar datasets • Single look • Multi look (available in different geometric corrections, e.g. georeferenced, ellipsoid or terrain corrected) In turn, each one of the two above options is available in different polarisations (e.g. single, dual, quad and cross/alternating or multi-Polarisation) depending on the SAR sensor.
• For optical datasets • Orthorectified • Non-orthorectified In turn, each one of the two above options is available as follows: - Panchromatic - Multispectral (available in 1, 3, 4, 5 or 8 bands) - Pansharpened (available in band combinations 4321, 432 or 321) - Bundle (available as [Panchromatic + 4 Multispectral bands] or [Panchromatic + 8 Multispectral bands]) - Stereo or mono
6.1.4 Cloud Coverage Classes For optical data, the following cloud coverage categories are selectable. The default value is Cloud-free20, the other values must be selected at order submission.
Cloud-free5 Cloud cover within the image shall not amount to more than 5% of the AoI Implying a cost uplift Cloud-free10 Cloud cover within the image shall not amount to more than 10% of the AoI Implying a cost uplift Cloud-free15 Cloud cover within the image shall not amount to more than 15% of the AoI Implying a cost uplift Cloud-free20 Cloud cover within the image shall not amount to more than 20% of the AoI

It implies a cost uplift ArchNormal Arch Default within Standard datasets. Product is delivered within 5 working days from order confirmation Normal New Default within Standard datasets. Product is delivered within 5 working days from sensing
6.2 Quota allocation, consumption and reshuffling The quota assignment process operates within a global framework of quota assigned by EC per Copernicus user or project for the 44 datasets defined in section 5.2. There is no quota assignment per individual mission rather per data and service type. The assigned quota is an indicative number of square kilometers (km2) of data available within a dataset to a single Copernicus user or project. Quota allocation is performed on a yearly basis.
ESA and ESA Third Party Missions are not subject to quota allocation and can be made available in any relevant dataset, on top of the missions specified in section 5.2.
Page 50/79 Copernicus Space Component Data Access Portfolio: Data Warehouse 2014 - 2020 Issue Date 31/03/2015 Ref COPE-PMAN-EOPG-TN-15-0004 ESA UNCLASSIFIED - For Official Use
6.2.1 Quota consumption The quota consumption depends on: (a) the actual number of square kilometers delivered; this depends on the minimum order/AOI size and minimum AOI incremental size for the mission and type of product requested; (b) the actual cost of the product delivered; within a dataset, the cost of the individual product may vary depending on mission and add-ons requested in the order (e.g. orthorectification, faster delivery, etc.).
For more details on how the km2 accounting per CCM is handled, please see section 6.1.1.
The type of product delivered depends on the order options as specified by the Copernicus user. Order options may have a major impact on the price/km2 of the delivered product e.g. the selection of higher level, most expensive (e.g. orthorectified, or stereo) products lead to earlier depletion of the assigned quota than ordering the same number of km2 at lower processing level (e.g. non-orthorectified panchromatic level).
6.2.2 Quota exhaustion and reshuffling In case a Copernicus user requires an update to the assigned quota once the DAP has been issued, the following rules apply: 1. The user shall contact the Account Managers, the dedicated interface for issues related to the data offer, in order to define and justify the new requirements 2. The Account Manager will analyse the request and, in case of major deviation, request the CCMs Contract Manager, to agree to an adaptation at the next revision with the EC. 3. In case of a small deviation to an existing dataset or quota exhaustion, the user shall send the order to the User Support Services team who will cater for the authorisation of the deviation from the Account Manager.
In case such alterations/deviations from DAP datasets occur, they will not be immediately reflected in a new DAP version, but monitored by the Account Managers and documented on the CSC-DA Web portal.

6.2.3 Quota allocations per Project Quota allocations are listed per Copernicus user and per dataset. A continuous monitoring of the quotas’ consumption is performed on a per service basis. At regular intervals until the end of the phase, the consumption will be assessed by the EC and ESA, in order to take corrective measures if required.

7 CSC-DA SERVICES 7.1 Copernicus Space Component Data Access (CSC-DA) infrastructure The CSC-DA infrastructure, developed by ESA in the frame of the Copernicus Space Component programme, relies on the ground segments of various data providers plus a set of coordinating functions in charge of ensuring internal coordination and control guaranteeing the Users with a harmonized access to CSC data.
As depicted in Figure 1, the Coordinated Data access System (CDS) is the centre of the operational system. It is in charge of coordinating the data flow between the data providers and the Copernicus Users, through the implementation of predefined datasets and the processing of asynchronous data requests based on mission capacity analysis as well as on the established agreements with CCMEs. The CDS ensures a harmonised user interface for the Copernicus Users. It also supports the production and dissemination of multi-mission collections, and provides a dedicated storage for CSC long-term data preservation. Data from the systematic global missions, including the Sentinels, are however not duplicated in the CDS archive but kept in the mission ground segment archive.

7.2 Rapid Emergency Activation Satellite Tasking Copernicus Users authorised to open emergency activations (with a specific quota for emergency datasets) interface the Rapid Emergency Activation Satellite Tasking (ex-GEST) team of the CSC-DA for submission of data requirements. The REACT (Rapid Emergency Activation for Copernicus Tasking) team schedules rush acquisition and/or rush data retrieval from CCMs archive.
7.2.1 Rush tasking schemes In this second phase of the Data Warehouse, the principle of 3-attempts will be applied by Optical missions: three consecutive acquisitions will be scheduled by the same data provider, in order to improve the chances of delivering a cloud-free image within the shortest timeframe possible. When the first valid (acceptable with respect to clouds) acquisition is confirmed, processing is performed and tasking stops. In case all 3 acquisitions are cloudy, a single rush tasking is charged and the corresponding quota deducted. A new emergency tasking scheme will also be tested in 2015, when all CCMEs fulfilling the service provider requirements will be requested to programme their satellites until a first satisfactory image is delivered. Only the fastest provider(s) will be paid.
7.2.2 CCMEs emergency service support The following table lists the CCMEs emergency service hours, deadlines to receive emergency tasking requests and expected delivery timeliness in nominal conditions.

The list of users is provided to the data providers. Access restrictions may apply depending on the data provider (see the mission-specific annex to the licence).
7.4 EO data ordering The on-demand (ADD) datasets are activated upon user requests (orders) for new or archived data. Authorised Copernicus users with an assigned quota may submit an order through the CDS ordering interface.
Only authorised users are entitled to submit emergency requests for rush delivery of new or archived data covering a disaster area, including one-off or repetitive (crisis monitoring) rush satellite tasking, processing and NRT dissemination. The emergency datasets have been created for this purpose. Emergency requests are managed according to dedicated procedures executed by the Rapid Emergency Activation for Copernicus Tasking (REACT) team within the Services Coordinated Interface (SCI).

An order cancellation may be accepted if justified but will have to be confirmed with the CCME.
Sentinels data access is instead open and no data ordering is required
7.5 Subscription Request The CDS-SCI implements the predefined (CORE) datasets according to DAP specifications. Once EO data are available within a dataset, authorised users may request access to these data by subscribing to the dataset. More information is available at https://copernicusdata.esa.int/web/cscda/data- access/subscription-to-datasets. No subscription is needed to access Sentinel data which are directly available after on-line registration.
7.6 Discovery and download All Copernicus users may browse the catalogue of data available in the CSCDA archive (EOLI-Sa) while download capability depends on access rights. Login account is user specific and is provided during the registration process. The data are organised by dataset, mission and by resolution type. Visibility of the CCMEs own catalogues is also implemented. More information is available in the GCL user manual at http://earth.esa.int/EOLi/EOLi.html.
7.7 Direct access to CCMEs or CDS on-line repositories A large majority of the EO data products procured from the CCMEs are available on-line. These data are disseminated to the CSPs: • directly by the CCMEs (FTP@CCM), when stringent timeliness delivery requirement applies (e.g. rapid mapping or sea ice monitoring purposes) • from the Coordinated Data Access System archive (FTP@CDS) for non-NRT deliveries or when cumulative datasets are generated as the result of the contribution from several EO missions (e.g. predefined large datasets). Duplicated delivery (FTP@CCM and FTP@CDS) is only available for data delivered within emergency datasets; in this case, a specific repository called Emergency Basket is generated and dedicated fixed accounts (both at CCME and CDS) are provided to the authorised users. Data access accounts are User or Service project as well as CCME specific and are provided at ordering start-up.
