(9) In order to introduce a common Union standard for high resolution satellite data a definition of high resolution satellite data should be provided for which is based on the technical capabilities of the Earth observation system, of its sensors and of the sensor modes which are used to generate the Earth observation data. The technical capabilities of the Earth observation system, its sensors and sensor modes that should be taken into account, are the spectral resolution, the spectral coverage, the spatial resolution, the radiometric resolution, the temporal resolution and the positional accuracy. The definition should be based on the availability of similar Earth observation data on the global markets and should be based on the potential prejudice to the interests, including internal and external security interests, of the Union or of the Member States which can derive from the dissemination of the Earth observation data. This definition also allows the identification of Earth observation satellite data other than high resolution data and is the basis for guaranteeing the free circulation for this data based on the fact that they do not have the potential to cause prejudice to the abefore-mentioned interests.
