Digital Earth Africa Sentinel-2 Level-2A
This dataset offers Digital Earth Africa Sentinel-2 Level-2A bottom-of-atmosphere reflectance data covering the African continent. Derived from the European Union Copernicus Sentinel-2 mission, it provides analysis-ready data ideal for various research and applications. New scenes are added regularly, usually within hours of their availability from Copernicus OpenHub.
The Digital Earth Africa Sentinel-2 Level-2A dataset provides bottom-of-atmosphere reflectance data for the entire African continent. Sourced from the European Union's Copernicus Sentinel-2 mission, this Level-2A data is processed using the Sen2Cor algorithm, making it ideal for direct research and analysis without requiring further atmospheric corrections.
The Sentinel-2 mission consists of twin satellites, Sentinel-2A and Sentinel-2B, which together cover all Earth’s land surfaces, large islands, and inland/coastal waters every 3-5 days. This dataset is a crucial resource for applications in agriculture, disaster response, and natural resource management across Africa.
New Sentinel-2 scenes are added regularly, typically within a few hours of becoming available on Copernicus OpenHub. Access to Sentinel data is free, full, and open, adhering to the Copernicus Terms and Conditions, and the dataset is discoverable on the Registry of Open Data on AWS and AWS Data Exchange.
