Open-Earth-Monitor Global Workshop 2026

Daniel Loos

I'm a postdoctoral researcher at the Max Planck Institute for Biogeochemistry in Jena, Germany. Originally coming from a bioinformatics background, I now work on software and data formats making geospatial data like satellite imagery less distorted.

From Sentinel-2 STAC to DGGS Native Data Cubes with DGGS.jl
Daniel Loos

Discrete Global Grid Systems (DGGS) tessellate the earth’s surface into zones of equal area and very similar shape, minimizing spatial distortions in geospatial data processing. Here we present DGGS.jl, a tool to create and visualize data cubes with DGGS coordinates. We applied it to create such a data cube of Europe from quarterly cloudless Sentinel-2 mosaics of the Copernicus Data Space Ecosystem.
