The Copernicus Sentinel-2 mission provides colour vision for Copernicus through a constellation of two identical satellites in the same orbit. Each satellite carries an innovative wide swath high-resolution multispectral imager with 13 spectral bands, delivering 10 m resolution imagery with a 5-day revisit time over a 290 km swath, used for land monitoring.
