The paper describes the features and the architectures of the ESIP (Environment oriented Satellite Data Processing) and gProcess platforms, supporting the Grid based satellite imagery processing. Features such as Grid services, interactive components, workflow execution, process monitoring, and service composition provided by gProcess, and satellite image processing operators provided by ESIP are described. The paper exemplifies the workflow based description of the GEMI vegetation index in ESIP. The experiments highlight and evaluate as well the performance of the GEMI workflow execution over the SEE-GRID infrastructure.
