What is the spatial resolution of Sentinel-2A?
10 m
Sentinel-2A Satellite Sensor Specifications MSI covering 13 spectral bands (443–2190 nm), with a swath width of 290 km and a spatial resolution of 10 m (four visible and near-infrared bands), 20 m (six red edge and shortwave infrared bands) and 60 m (three atmospheric correction bands).
Which band of Sentinel-2 image is NIR band?
The Sentinel 2 satellites have a Multi-Spectral Instrument (MSI) with 13 spectral bands that range from the visible range to the shortwave infrared (SWIR)….Band List.
| Sentinel-2 Bands | Central Wavelength (µm) | Resolution (m) |
|---|---|---|
| Band 8 – NIR | 0.842 | 10 |
| Band 8A – Vegetation Red Edge | 0.865 | 20 |
| Band 9 – Water vapour | 0.945 | 60 |
Which is the spatial resolution band of Sentinel-2?
The spatial resolution of SENTINEL-2 is dependent on the particular spectral band: Figure 1: SENTINEL-2 10 m spatial resolution bands: B2 (490 nm), B3 (560 nm), B4 (665 nm) and B8 (842 nm) Figure 2: SENTINEL-2 20 m spatial resolution bands: B5 (705 nm), B6 (740 nm), B7 (783 nm), B8a (865 nm), B11 (1610 nm) and B12 (2190 nm)
What kind of satellite is the Sentinel 2?
About Sentinel-2. SENTINEL-2, launched as part of the European Commission’s Copernicus program on June 23, 2015, was designed specifically to deliver a wealth of data and imagery. The satellite is equipped with an opto-electronic multispectral sensor for surveying with a sentinel-2 resolution of 10 to 60 m in the visible, near infrared (VNIR),
What is the range of values of Sentinel-2?
“The L2A Quantification Value is aligned with the L1C Quantification Value of the L1C product from which the L2A product is generated” When I refer to Sentinel-2 Products Specification Document page 403 I found the following: Why would the range of values of Level 1C images be 1 to 65535 if the images are supposed to be 12 bits.
Which is the safe format for Sentinel 2?
SENTINEL-2 products will be made available to users in SENTINEL-SAFE format, including image data in JPEG2000 format, quality indicators (e.g. defective pixels mask), auxiliary data and metadata. The SAFE format has been designed to act as a common format for archiving and conveying data within ESA Earth Observation archiving facilities.
