  1. The European Copernicus Programme and Sentinel-1 and -2 Data Flow Frank Martin Seifert EO Science and Applications DivisionESA Earth Observation ProgrammeSDCG-6 | 23 October 2014 | Oslo

  2. Copernicus: A New Generation of Data Sources Sent-1A/B Sent-2A/B Sent-3A/B Sent-4A/B Sent-5/5P Sent-6/Jason-CS • Copernicus is a European space flagship programme led by the European Union • ESA coordinates the space component • Copernicus provides the necessary data for operational monitoring of the environment and for civil security

  3. Copernicus Sentinel Satellites

  4. … and how the Sentinels contribute The Copernicus Services Component …

  5. Sentinel-1 Mission • C-band SAR imaging mission in continuation of ERS and Envisat • 7 years design life time with consumables for 12 years • 12 days repeat cycle (1 satellite), 6 days for the 2 satellite constellation • Up to 25 minutes duty cycle in any of the image modes • 4 mutually exclusive SAR modes with different resolution and coverage • Main modes of operations: • IW over land and coastal waters (normally VV or VV/VH polarization) • EW over extended sea (VV or VV/VH) and sea-ice (HH or HH/HV) areas • WV over open oceans

  6. Sentinel- 2 Mission

  7. Sentinel-2: Bands and Resolutions

  8. Sentinel-2 Products The following products will be made available to users:

  9. Copernicus Sentinel Data Policy Sentinel Data Policy = FREE and OPEN access Copernicus Sentinel Data Policy • Joint COM/ESA Sentinel Data Policy Principles have been prepared in 2009 - adopted by ESA MSs in Sep 2009 • EU Delegated Act on Copernicus Data and Information Policy has been adopted in 2013 (C(2013)4311, final) • ESA got approval of updated Sentinel Data Policy from its Member Statesin Sep 2013. Main principles of Sentinel data policy: • Open access to Sentinel data by anybody and for any use • Free of charge data licenses • Restrictions possible due to technical limitations or security constraints

  10.
