- Earth Observation (EO) data can provide local-to-global scale information on inland, transitional and coastal water quality over broad spatial and fine temporal scales. The recent launch of the Copernicus Sentinel satellites has enabled the development of user-driven operational services for water quality monitoring. However, validation is key to ensure users are confident in the service provided. Validation can be defined as an assessment of the reliability of the data products by independent means (Kleywegt, 2007). Thus, in situ data are collected using high-spectral and temporal resolution instruments and laboratory analysis of water samples in order to validate the water quality parameters derived from EO data. Examples of the instruments and methods that can be used for validation are described in this poster.
