Abstract

The Environmental Mapping and Analysis Program (EnMAP) is a German hyperspectral satellite mission designed to characterise and monitor the Earth's environment and its changes. The EnMAP satellite was launched on April 1st, 2022 and has been in the operational phase since November of that year. This presentation provides an update on the mission status two years after launch, and on the activities of the science segment, including data quality and mission performance, new developments in open source algorithms and educational tools (EnMAP-Box, HYPERedu), current status of EnMAP's background and foreground missions, as well as selected demonstration examples of geo- and bio-EnMAP products. This reflects the scientific achievements for various cutting-edge and environmental applications that are of benefit to society today.
