ZKI-DE – a service for federal authorities
Between 2013 and 2020, the ZKI-DE service made it possible for federal authorities to obtain at short notice current geoinformation and analyses, which presented public administrations with new options for action. This innovative collaboration between the Ministry of the Interior (BMI) and the German Aerospace Center (Deutsches Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt, DLR) met the need of federal authorities for current, value-added remote sensing data and analyses for crisis situations and to support civil security. Between 2016 und 2020 another goal of the cooperation was to enable the Federal Agency for Cartography and Geodesy (Bundesamt für Kartographie und Geodäsie, BKG) to carry out primary activities of the ZKI-DE services by 2021.

ZKI Fire Monitoring System
The application shows the current fire areas in Europe, evaluated in near-real time. The fully automated analysis is based on data from the Sentinel-3 OLCI and MODIS sensors. The color gradations of the fire areas represent the respective severity of the burn.

Flood Service
A system has been established at the German Remote Sensing Data Center of DLR that allows the near-real time mapping and monitoring of flood situations. It consists of fully automatic processing chains for the derivation of the inundation extent based on Sentinel-1 and TerraSAR-X Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) satellite data.
