Satellite Imagery as Georeferenced GeoTIFF
Price before paymentThis is a BARE photo from orbit: not one of our layers is on it — no buildings, no streets, no labels. To get the photo with our map drawn over it, order any ordinary format and tick “Satellite photo under the map” in the order settings. Satellite GeoTIFF is a coordinate-aligned satellite snapshot of your area, ready to load into GIS. osm2cdr.ru downloads XYZ tiles from the Sentinel-2 Cloudless mosaic (EOX, 2017 imagery, 10 m per pixel — the sensor sees no finer), stitches them, crops to the bounding box and saves a GeoTIFF georeferenced in EPSG:4326 — coordinates and projection are written into the file, so the image drops onto a map in QGIS or ArcGIS without manual alignment. Inside is a 3-channel RGB composite (visible image, JPEG-compressed, tiled), not the 13 spectral bands of Sentinel: it is a visual base, not raw material for NDVI. Coverage is bounded (up to 400 tiles per request).

O formáte Satellite GeoTIFF
GeoTIFF is an ordinary TIFF with coordinates and a projection written into it as well: a GIS knows which piece of ground each pixel corresponds to and puts the image exactly in its place. The format is open and read by everything — from QGIS and ArcGIS to GDAL, Global Mapper and ENVI.
This export gives you not a drawn map but real imagery from orbit. It is what you need when vector layers are not enough: to show the actual look of a territory, to compare the map with reality, to put a backdrop under your own data, to illustrate a land use report.
How it is assembled: the service downloads tiles of the Sentinel-2 Cloudless mosaic (EOX, 2017 imagery, 10 meters per pixel — the sensor sees no finer), stitches them, crops them to your frame and writes a GeoTIFF — a three-band RGB with internal tiling and compression. The zoom is chosen automatically so as to fit the tile limit per request: the larger the area, the coarser the pixel.
What the file does not have is spectral bands. This is a visible image for the eye and for a backdrop, not raw material for computing vegetation indices.

Kto používa mapy Satellite GeoTIFF
Ako exportovať Satellite GeoTIFF
Ako súbor otvoriť po exporte
- QGIS — Layer > Add Raster Layer; the image will take its place by itself, nothing has to be georeferenced by hand.
- ArcGIS Pro — Add Data and pick the file; from there it is convenient to put it as a backdrop under your vector layers.
- GDAL — gdalinfo shows the projection, the size and the resolution, and gdalwarp converts the image into a metric projection if your project is run in one.
- A hybrid map — download the same area as SVG, GeoJSON or DXF and put it over the imagery: you get satellite with vector labels.
- Attribution — the imagery is CC BY 4.0, and the credit line is already written into the tags of the file: "Contains modified Copernicus Sentinel data 2017. Sentinel-2 cloudless by EOX IT Services GmbH (CC BY 4.0), https://maps.eox.at". Repeat it next to the image when you publish.
