In the upcoming generation of satellite sensors, hyperspectral instruments will play a significant role and are considered world-wide within different future planning. The authors' team has successfully finished the Phase B study for the advanced hyperspectral mission EnMAP. Routine operations shall start in 2012. The scientific lead of the mission is at the GFZ and the industrial prime ship at Kayser-Threde. The performance of the hyperspectral instrument allows for a detailed monitoring, characterisation and parameter extraction of rock/soil targets, vegetation, and inland and coastal waters on a global scale supporting a wide variety of applications in agriculture, forestry, water management and geology. The EnMAP instrument provides over 240 continuous spectral bands in the wavelength range between 420 - 2450 nm with a ground resolution of 30 m times 30 m. Thus, the broad science and application community can draw from an extensive and highly resolved pool of information supporting the modelling and optimisation process on their results. The operation of an airborne system (ARES) as an element in the HGF hyperspectral network and the ongoing evolution concerning data handling and extraction procedures, will support the later inclusion process of EnMAP into the growing scientist and user communities. As a scientific pathfinder mission a broad international science community has raised larger interest in the hyperspectral data sets as well as value adding companies investigating the commercial potential of EnMAP. The presented paper describes the instrument and mission highlighting the data application and the actual status in the EnMAP planning phase.
