Validations of remote sensing-derived data for water quality characteristics, such as chlorophyll-a, Secchi depth, and turbidity, have often remained restricted to small numbers of water bodies and have included local calibration. Here, we present an evaluation of &gt; 100 water bodies in Germany covering different sizes, maximum depths, and trophic states. Data from Sentinel-2 MSI and Sentinel-3 OLCI were analyzed by two processing chains. Our work focuses on analysis of the accuracy of remote sensing products by comparing them to a large in situ data set from governmental monitoring from 13 federal states in Germany and, hence, achieves a national scale assessment. We quantified the fit between the remote sensing data and in situ data among processing chains, satellite instruments, and our three target water quality variables. In general, overall regressions between in situ data and remote sensing data followed the 1:1 regression. Remote sensing may, thus, be regarded as a valuable tool for complementing in situ monitoring by useful information on higher spatial and temporal scales in order to support water management, e.g., for the European Water Framework Directive (WFD) and the Bathing Water Directive (BWD).<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/rs16183416","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,9,16]],"date-time":"2024-09-16T10:56:57Z","timestamp":1726484217000},"page":"3416","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Evaluating Satellite-Based Water Quality Sensing of Inland Waters on Basis of 100+ German Water Bodies Using 2 Different Processing Chains"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"16","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0051-6480","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Susanne I.","family":"Schmidt","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Lake Research, Helmholtz-Centre for Environmental Research\u2014UFZ, 39114 Magdeburg, Germany"}]},{"given":"Tanja","family":"Schr\u00f6der","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Lake Research, Helmholtz-Centre for Environmental Research\u2014UFZ, 39114 Magdeburg, Germany"}]},{"given":"Rebecca D.","family":"Kutzner","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute for Lake Research, 88085 Langenargen, Germany"}]},{"given":"Pia","family":"Laue","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute for Hygiene and Environment, 20539 Hamburg, Germany"}]},{"given":"Hendrik","family":"Bernert","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"EOMAP GmbH & Co.
