This time-enabled mosaic contains Sentinel 2 Natural Color imagery acquired weekly since 2/13/2023 by ESA/Copernicus surrounding the San Joaquin Valley. Imagery resolution is 10m. Spatial reference is WGS 1984 UTM Zone 11N. This Natural Color image service is made from Sentinel 2 Bands 4,3,2. The Sentinel-2 mission consists of two satellites developed to support vegetation, land cover, and environmental monitoring. The Sentinel-2A satellite was launched by ESA on June 23, 2015, and operates in a sun-synchronous orbit with a 10-day repeat cycle. A second identical satellite (Sentinel-2B) was launched March 7, 2017. Together they cover all Earth’s land surfaces, large islands, and inland and coastal waters every five days. The Sentinel-2 MultiSpectral Instrument (MSI) acquires 13 spectral bands ranging from Visible and Near-Infrared (VNIR) to Shortwave Infrared (SWIR) wavelengths along a 290-km orbital swath. The MSI sensor data are complementary to data acquired by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Landsat 8 Operational Land Imager (OLI) and Landsat 7 Enhanced Thematic Mapper Plus (ETM+) (Comparison of Sentinel-2 and Landsat).
