Sentinel-2 Level-1C imagery with on-the-fly renderings for visualization. This imagery layer pulls directly from the Sentinel-2 on AWS collection and is updated daily with new imagery.Sentinel-2 imagery can be applied across a number of industries, scientific disciplines, and management practices. Some applications include, but are not limited to, land cover and environmental monitoring, climate change, deforestation, disaster and emergency management, national security, plant health and precision agriculture, forest monitoring, watershed analysis and runoff predictions, land-use planning, tracking urban expansion, highlighting burned areas and estimating fire severity.Geographic CoverageGlobalContinental land masses from 65.4° South to 72.1° North, with these special guidelines:All coastal waters up to 20 km from the shoreAll islands greater than 100 km2All EU islandsAll closed seas (e.g. Caspian Sea)The Mediterranean Sea Temporal CoverageThis layer includes a rolling collection of Sentinel-2 imagery acquired within the past 14 months.This layer is updated daily with new imagery.The revisit time for each point on Earth is every 5 days.The number of images available will vary depending on location. Product LevelThis service provides Level-1C Top of Atmosphere imagery.Alternatively, Sentinel-2 Level-2A is also available. Image Selection/FilteringThe most recent and cloud free images are displayed by default.Any image available within the past 14 months can be displayed via custom filtering.Filtering can be done based on attributes such as Acquisition Date, Estimated Cloud Cover, and Tile ID.Tile_ID is computed as [year][month][day]T[hours][minutes][seconds]_[UTMcode][latitudeband][square]_[sequence]. More… Visual RenderingDefault rendering is Natural Color (bands 4,3,2) with Dynamic Range Adjustment (DRA).The DRA version of each layer enables visualization of the full dynamic range of the images.Rendering (or display) of band combinations and calculated indices is done on-the-fly from the source images via Raster Functions.Various pre-defined Raster Functions can be selected or custom functions created.Available renderings include: Agriculture with DRA, Bathymetric with DRA, Color-Infrared with DRA, Natural Color with DRA, Short-wave Infrared with DRA, Geology with DRA, NDMI Colorized, Normalized Difference Built-Up Index (NDBI), NDWI Raw, NDWI - with VRE Raw, NDVI – with VRE Raw (NDRE), NDVI - VRE only Raw, NDVI Raw, Normalized Burn Ratio, NDVI Colormap. Multispectral BandsBandDescriptionWavelength (µm)Resolution (m)1Coastal aerosol0.433 - 0.453602Blue0.458 - 0.523103Green0.543 - 0.578104Red0.650 - 0.680105Vegetation Red Edge0.698 - 0.713206Vegetation Red Edge0.733 - 0.748207Vegetation Red Edge0.773 - 0.793208NIR0.785 - 0.900108ANarrow NIR0.855 - 0.875209Water vapour0.935 - 0.9556010SWIR – Cirrus1.365 - 1.3856011SWIR-11.565 - 1.6552012SWIR-22.100 - 2.28020Additional NotesOverviews exist with a spatial resolution of 150m and are updated every quarter based on the best and latest imagery available at that time.To work with source images at all scales, the ‘Lock Raster’ functionality is available. NOTE: ‘Lock Raster’ should only be used on the layer for short periods of time, as the imagery and associated record Object IDs may change daily.This ArcGIS Server dynamic imagery layer can be used in Web Maps and ArcGIS Desktop as well as Web and Mobile applications using the REST based Image services API.Images can be exported up to a maximum of 4,000 columns x 4,000 rows per request. Data SourceSentinel-2 imagery is the result of close collaboration between the (European Space Agency) ESA, the European Commission and USGS. Data is hosted by the Amazon Web Services as part of their Registry of Open Data. Users can access the imagery from Sentinel-2 on AWS, or alternatively access EarthExplorer or the Copernicus Data Space Ecosystem to download the scenes.For information on Sentinel-2 imagery, see Sentinel-2.
