The Digital Earth Africa interactive visualisation map provides users with the tools to visualise satellite images and decision ready data over the African continent, to understand its geographic diversity and how it changes through time.

The Digital Earth Africa Sandbox is a cloud-based computational platform that operates through a Jupyter Lab environment. A limited, free compute resource is provided for technical users and data scientists to explore Digital Earth Africa data and products. It enables access to remote-sensing data and analysis tools for ad-hoc report generation and rapid development of new algorithms. 

A repository of readily available notebooks (markdown and code) is available on GitHub and loaded by default in the Sandbox. Notebooks enable users to readily load, process, analyse and visualise Digital Earth Africa datasets. The repository grows continuously as new notebooks are developed by the Digital Earth Africa team and the user community.

Esri provides geographic information system software, web GIS and geodatabase management applications. Esri’s Africa GeoPortal uses imagery from Digital Earth Africa to provide free geospatial tools, data and training for users working on African geospatial challenges.

The Digital Earth Africa Metadata Explorer is a website that uses the Open Data Cube to inspect metadata for Digital Earth Africa services and datasets. It includes a time-picker and coverage map to help users find datasets. The explorer can be used to locate and download individual data files from Digital Earth Africa.

The OGC Web Services delivers Digital Earth Africa data through standard Application Program Interfaces (APIs). It offers users freely available and interoperable data via services that are compatible with international open standards, allowing users to visualise and analyse data with Geographic Information System (GIS) clients.

The Digital Earth Africa User Guide provides technical information and guidance for using each of the platforms to interact with data. It also describes and provides technical information on all the datasets and services offered. The user guide is the first port of call for any technical guidance and also provides links to training courses and contact information.
