+# SSL4EO-S12-downstream
+
+Welcome to the SSL4EO-S12-downstream dataset. This dataset is used in the [Embed2Scale Challenge](https://eval.ai/web/challenges/challenge-page/2453/overview).
+
+Currently there is only one set of data available `data_dev`, used in the development (dev) phase of the challenge.
+
+The dev set comprises 5149 datacubes of Sentinel-1 and Sentinel-2 data, as visualized below. Each datacube constitute one location, with S1 VV and VH polarisations, S2 L1C and S2 L2A channels, at four timesteps. For each datacube, there is one sample of all the modalities for the four season: spring, summer, autumn and winter. The datacubes are stored in zipped zarr archives; see [here](https://github.com/DLR-MF-DAS/embed2scale-challenge-supplement/tree/main/data_loading_submission_demo) for instructions how to load the data. The data in the zarr archives is structure as (number of locations, number of timestamps, number of channels, heigh, width) with the dimensions (1, 4, 27, 264, 264); the 27 channels coming from 2 S1 polarizations (VV and VH), 13 S2 L1C channels (B1, B2, B3, B4, B5, B6, B7, B8A, B9, B10, B11, B12), and 12 S2 L2A channels (B1, B2, B3, B4, B5, B6, B7, B8A, B9, B11, B12).

+
+The data is structured identically to the SSL4EOS12 v1.1 dataset:
