2 Copernicus programme. The Sentinel Scientific Data Hub (scihub. ) is the access portal for data from all Sentinel In the future, this data hub will also provide the data products of missions with an interactive graphical user interface. It provides Sentinel -4, Sentinel -5 and Sentinel -6, when these missions are complete, free and open access to Sentinel -1, Sentinel -2 and operational. What for? The Sentinel satellites are used for a range of applications, to Sentinel -3 is used to monitor the oceans. Due to its low resolution monitor and observe the environment and security in Europe and and large swath width, it can cover the earth's oceans daily. around the world. Sentinels-4 and -5 will be used for air quality monitoring. Sentinel -1 is a SAR satellite. Its radar can image through clouds More information on the use and applications can be found at and darkness. Sentinel -2 is designed for land monitoring purposes.

3 The high resolution optical satellite can monitor changes in vegetation every 2 to 3 days. Where? All Sentinel data will become available in the Copernicus Sentinel For more information, or user support, Scientific Data Hub at , once the satellite is you can email operational.
