Register now for the RUS Oil spill mapping with Sentinel-1 webinar taking place on Tuesday 15 May 2018 from 14.30 to 16:00 CEST. 

 

The Oil spill mapping with Sentinel-1 webinar will illustrate:

  • how to access the RUS Service
  • how to download, process, analyse and visualise the free data acquired by the Copernicus satellites
  • the methodology to map an area affected by oil spill pollution, using ESA SNAP Sentinel-1 Toolbox.
The second Sentinel-3 satellite, Copernicus Sentinel-3B, was launched on 25 April, joining its identical twin Sentinel-3A in orbit. This pairing of satellites increases coverage and data delivery for the European Union's Copernicus environment programme.
Users are informed that the incident on the Data Hub infrastructure which occurred earlier today at 9:30 UTC was resolved at 14:15 UTC.
The launch of Sentinel-3B will complete the Sentinel-3 constellation and represents the culmination of months of training to fly Europe's latest Copernicus satellite.

Users are informed that a blocking infrastructure incident has occurred at one of the data hub centres on 24 April 2018 at 09:30 UTC.

The next Sentinel satellite for Europe's environmental monitoring Copernicus programme is poised for liftoff from the Plesetsk cosmodrome in northern Russia.
Following the maintenance activities on the Data Hubs on 10 and 11 April 2018, two new activities have been scheduled aimed at improving the data access performance and to properly re-balance the traffic load
In this special edition, senior project scientist at Gamma Remote Sensing, Dr Maurizio Santoro, joins the show to discuss how his team estimates forest biomass from space.

Getting a satellite ready to be launched involves a long list of jobs, but with the Copernicus Sentinel-3B satellite now fuelled, this particular 'to do' list is significantly shorter. And, importantly, all is on track for lift-off on 25 April.

Launched from Europe's Spaceport in French Guiana on 3 April 2014, the Copernicus Sentinel-1A satellite continues to gather radar imagery of Earth for a wide range of applications.
