SesamEO - Access Anything
SesamEO makes heterogeneous data easily accessible. It acts as a bridge to access data served by different providers. The most common data are Earth observation products but it can also be anything else, like statistics over Europe, atmospheric data, climate data… Data is represented by products, which are organized into themes and collections. Collections are automatically discovered from the online catalogues so called providers or can also be created by administrators. Products can be filtered according to the provider capabilities and can then be downloaded. The architecture of SesamEO is designed to easily add new data providers.
