The Tree Species Germany product provides a map of dominant tree species across Germany for the year 2022 at a spatial resolution of 10 meters. The map depicts the distribution of ten tree species groups derived from multi-temporal optical Sentinel-2 data, radar data from Sentinel-1, and a digital elevation model. The input features explicitly incorporate phenological information to capture seasonal vegetation dynamics relevant for species discrimination. A total of over 80,000 training and test samples were compiled from publicly accessible sources, including urban tree inventories, Google Earth Pro, Google Street View, and field observations. The final classification was generated using an XGBoost machine learning algorithm. The Tree Species Germany product achieves an overall F1-score of 0.89. For the dominant species pine, spruce, beech, and oak, class-wise F1-scores range from 0.76 to 0.98, while F1-scores for other widespread species such as birch, alder, larch, Douglas fir, and fir range from 0.88 to 0.96. The product provides a consistent, high-resolution, and up-to-date representation of tree species distribution across Germany. Its transferable, cost-efficient, and repeatable methodology enables reliable large-scale forest monitoring and offers a valuable basis for assessing spatial patterns and temporal changes in forest composition in the context of ongoing climatic and environmental dynamics.

This dataset bibliography collects all radar data acquired with AWI's radio-echo sounding (RES) systems (airborne and ground-based) since 1994. An overview of acquired data is available from the radar data viewer in the German marine data portal https://marine-data.de/viewer/d181f76f-fa15-44c9-8452-07540c72e0be. The radar data viewer provides metadata of flights for various systems operated by AWI as well as selected other institutions and downloadable quicklooks of the radar data.
This dataset contains airborne radar data acquired using the AWI ultra-wideband microwave radar (UWBM) during the Arctic season of 2018. The profiles extend across the Greenland Ice Sheet over and upstream of 79°N Glacier (Nioghalvfjerdsbræ; northeast Greenland). Furthermore, one flight extends over sea ice northeast of the Greenland Ice Sheet. The data are available as netCDF files (including waveforms and metadata), KML files of the profile line locations, and quicklook images of the radargrams. For every profile we provide four radar products (img_01, img_02, img_03, img_04), which correspond to the four polarizations (VV, VH, HH, HV).
The Risk Index Outcome (RIO) is a critical component of the Polar Operational Limit Assessment Risk Indexing System (POLARIS) developed by the International Maritime Organization (IMO, 2016). RIO evaluates the operational risks for ships navigating in ice-infested waters by evaluating ice conditions and offers a quantifiable measure of risk that aids in decision-making for safe navigation in polar regions based on ship ice class, sea ice type/stage of development (SOD) and sea ice concentration (SIC). The DMI-led Automated Sea Ice Products (DMI-ASIP; Wulf et al., 2024, dataset) provides daily maps of SOD and SIC based on Sentinel-1 SAR imagery, AMSR-2 Passive Microwave and Ice Charts from the Greenland and Canadian Ice Services, combined with novel AI retrieval and processing techniques. In the framework of EU funded Arctic PASSION project, we produced 10 years of satellite observation based weekly RIO maps referred as the Arctic PASSION-RIO (AP-RIO) by leveraging DMI-ASIP datasets. The AP-RIO dataset will provide weekly risk assessment maps for the given ship classes and will support the establishment of a 10 year climatology thereby enabling the assessment of RIO variability in the years covered by the input DMI-ASIP products. The AP-RIO dataset will enhance the safety and efficiency of maritime operations in the polar seas, providing a robust reference for evaluating normal and extreme ice conditions. AP-RIO is produced in the framework of the Arctic PASSION project (European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation program under grant agreement No. 101003472) and supported by the DMI-ASIP development team. Algorithm and Processing Scheme: SIC and SOD from ASIP are processed (by taking the mean and mode respectively) into a weekly field based on the daily files for that week. This is done for the time period of 3 Oct. 2014 - 3 Oct. 2024. The weekly SOD is used to find the Risk Value (RV) by looking at the lookup table (Dybkjær et al. 2025a). Risk Index Outcome (RIO) values are computed for each pixel in the field based on the RIO formula (RIO = SIC x RV) using the SIC from ASIP and the found RV. The meaning of the computed RIO values can be interpreted using the table in (Dybkjær et al. 2025b). The RIO field is finally saved to weekly NetCDF files.
This data collection unites the individual data sets of the COMPEX-EC (Clouds over cOMPlEX environment - EarthCARE) campaign, carried out in Kiruna 2.-16.4.2025. COMPEX-EC has been designed as an EarthCARE validation campaign. For that purpose, Polar 5 (C-GAWI) has been equipped with instrumentation similar to the one operated on EarthCARE (W-band radar, lidar, radiometers, spectral imagers). Seven research flights (summing up to more than 30 flight hours) were conducted each of them underflying the EarthCARE satellite to validate its performance.
