In 2015, the European Space Agency (ESA) launched its own high resolution earth observation satellite system from the Sentinel program, Sentinel-2. Since then, it has provided us with enormous amounts of fantastic data, all for free, accessible to everybody. For us here at EOMAP, this started a new era, giving us access to the best combination of spatial and temporal resolution that we ever had. Consequently, Sentinel-2 is specifically precious to us and we want to celebrate its half-decade birthday with some of our favorite images from all around the globe. See for yourself!
