SentinelDownloader makes it easy to obtain satellite data from Sentinel-1, Sentinel-2, Sentinel-3 and Sentinel-5P from the European Space Agency. Specializing in data collection, analysis and visualization, this project simplifies image processing for end users. Developed by the Office of Strategic Planning and Development Effectiveness of the Inter-American Development Bank, SentinelDownloader seeks to overcome barriers to accessing satellite data. Its objective is to enhance the effectiveness of development projects through the efficient use of satellite information, offering a practical solution for the asynchronous download of data from the Copernicus Open Access Hub.
Accessing and managing satellite images for Earth observation and analysis can be complex. Sentineldownloader addresses this problem by providing a platform that simplifies the acquisition and management of sentinel mission images, benefiting remote sensing professionals and researchers involved in a wide range of applications.
Image Acquisition: SentinelDownloader often includes tools for downloading and accessing satellite imagery from the Sentinel missions. Data Management: The platform supports efficient data management, enabling users to organize and process the acquired imagery. Remote Sensing: Users can often apply remote sensing techniques to analyze the Earth's surface and make informed decisions.
Implements asynchronous programming in Python to optimize data retrieval. Supports satellite data from Sentinel-1, Sentinel-2, Sentinel-3, and Sentinel-5P, ensuring interoperability with open standards. Utilizes AsyncIO, AIOfiles, and AIOhttp for efficient asynchronous downloads. Allows configuration through YAML files or command line, providing operational flexibility. Requires registration with Copernicus Open Access Hub for access to Sentinel data.
