Sentinel 2

Datasets:

• Sentinel 2 Top of Atmosphere (TOA)
• Sentinel 2 Surface Reflectance (SR)

Description: Reflectance data from the Copernicus Sentinel-2 satellite is available for top-of-atmosphere(TOA) and for the earth surface reflectance(SR) in visible, near, and short wave infrared bands. Several vegetation indices are constructed from these bands such as NDVI, EVI, NDSI, NDWI. 

Organization: European Space Agency (ESA)
