Sentinel Mission
The Sentinel Mission is a project initiated by the European Space Agency (ESA) as part of the Copernicus Programme. Its primary goal is to monitor the Earth's environment and provide valuable data for climate change, natural disasters, and land management. The mission includes a series of satellites equipped with advanced sensors to collect information on land, water, and air quality.
The mission features several satellite families, including Sentinel-1, which uses radar technology for all-weather monitoring, and Sentinel-2, which focuses on optical imaging for land and vegetation analysis. Together, these satellites contribute to a comprehensive understanding of our planet's health and support various applications in agriculture, forestry, and urban planning.
