Core Products
Section titled “Core Products”NIMBO Basemaps (10m)
Section titled “NIMBO Basemaps (10m)”The foundation of the Nimbo catalog. We deliver global, cloud-free composites based on Sentinel-2 imagery.
- Monthly Updates: New global mosaics every month.
- Atmospheric Correction: Automated removal of clouds and shadows.
- Temporal Transparency: The integrated Traceability Layer allows users to verify the exact age of every pixel.
NIMBO HD (2.5m)
Section titled “NIMBO HD (2.5m)”Our flagship high-resolution product. Using proprietary Deep Learning super-resolution, we enhance our basemaps from 10m to 2.5m.
- Enhanced Spatial Detail: Sharper features for urban and infrastructure monitoring.
- Consistent Radiometry: Preserves the color accuracy of the 10m source while adding texture and details.
- Confidence Layer: Provides a quality index for AI-generated pixels.
NIMBO Terrain (DEM)
Section titled “NIMBO Terrain (DEM)”A unified global Digital Elevation Model merging top-tier sources (Copernicus DEM, SRTM and national datasets).
- Standardized Access: Integrated via the same TMS/WMTS patterns as optical data.
- GIS Ready: Ideal for orthorectification, 3D visualization, and topographic analytics.
