Since the launch of the first Landsat satellite in the early 1970s, the field of space-borne optical remote sensing has made significant progress. Advances have been made in all aspects of optical remote sensing data, including improved spatial, temporal, spectral and radiometric resolutions, which have increased the uptake of these data by wider scientific communities. Flagship satellite missions such as NASA’s Terra and Aqua and ESA’s Envisat with their high temporal (<3days) and spectral (15–36 bands) resolutions opened new opportunities for routine monitoring of various aspects of terrestrial ecosystems at the global scale and have provided greater understanding of critical biophysical processes in the terrestrial ecosystem. The launch of new satellite sensors such as Landsat 8 and the European Space Agency’s Copernicus Sentinel missions (e.g. Sentinel 2 with improved spatial resolution (10–60 m) and potential revisit time of five days) is set to revolutionise the availability and use of remote sensing data in global terrestrial ecosystem monitoring. Furthermore, the recent move towards use of constellations of nanosatellites (e.g. the Flock missions by Planet Labs) to collect on-demand high spatial and temporal resolution optical remote sensing data would enable uptake of these data for operational monitoring. As a result of increase in data availability, optical remote sensing data are now increasingly used to support a number of operational services (e.g. land monitoring, atmosphere monitoring and climate change studies). However, many challenges still remain in exploiting the growing volume of optical remote sensing data to monitor global terrestrial ecosystems. These challenges include ensuring the highest data quality both in terms of the sensitivity of sensors and the derived biophysical products, affordability and availability of the data and continuity of data acquisition. This review provides an overview of the developments in space-borne optical remote sensing in the past decade and discusses a selection of aspects of global terrestrial ecosystems where the data are currently used. It concludes by highlighting some of the challenges and opportunities of using optical remote sensing data in monitoring global terrestrial ecosystems.
