Sentinels
Copernicus Sentinels
Each satellite is technically different to meet the needs of the 6 services
Sentinel 1 – radar imaging
All weather, day/night applications
Sentinel 2 – Optical imaging
Land applications: urban, forest, agriculture,..
Sentinel 3+6 – Ocean and global land monitoring, high
precision ocean altimetry
Sentinel 4+5 – Atmosphere composition monitoring, from a
geostationary (-4) and a polar orbit (-5)

Objectives of the data and
information policy
• Promote the use and sharing of Copernicus data
and information
• Support the European research, technology and
innovation communities
• Strengthen Earth observation markets in Europe,
in particular the downstream sector, with a view
to enabling growth and job creation !!!
• GEO Data Policy Compliant !
In Situ Meteorological Data
Needs of Copernicus Services
Atmosphere Service
air temperature, wind direction, wind speed, precipitation, air pressure, humidity,
long wave radiation, shortwave (UV) radiation
Emergency Management Service
precipitation, air temperature, wind direction, wind speed, humidity
Land Monitoring Service
air temperature, water vapour, global solar radiation, infrared radiation, snow
Marine Service
temperature/global ocean, wind information/global ocean
Climate Change Service and Security Service !!

Copernicus – WMO / EUMETNET Partnership
• Copernicus to benefit from data provision:
• WMO - WIGOS, WMO RA VI …
• EUMETNET - grouping of 31 European National Meteorological Services
• General Agreement in preparation, recognizing:
• ECOMET, National data licensing policies
• WMO Resolution 40, 1995, 'essential' and 'additional' data…
• WMO & Meteorological Community to benefit from:
• Copernicus Space Component (Sentinels) and
• Services:
• Marine, Atmosphere, Climate Change, Emergency Management…
