Summary

High-resolution soil moisture data is crucial in the development of hydrological applications as it provides detailed insights into the spatiotemporal variability of soil moisture. The emergence of advanced remote sensing technologies, alongside the widespread adoption of machine learning, has facilitated the creation of continental and global soil moisture products both at fine spatial (1 km) and temporal (daily) scales. Some of these products rely on several data sources as input (satellite, in situ, modelling), and therefore an evaluation of their actual spatial and temporal resolution is required. Nevertheless, the absence of appropriate ground monitoring networks poses a significant challenge for this assessment. In this study, five high-resolution (1 km) soil moisture products (S1-RT
