Sentinel-2 and Landsat, on demand.

Search a place and get every clear day as a timeline. View it in true colour, false colour or ten spectral indices with clouds masked, compare two dates side by side, chart your fields over months and years, get an email when a new clear image arrives, and download exactly the area you need. Rendered on the fly from the public archives, with nothing to preprocess.

One scene, many looks

The same pixels, seven ways and more. On the map each look is one click, and hovering an index shows its value at that spot.

What you can do

On the map, and through the API with one key. The demo runs without one.

Every clear day

Search a view and get its days as a timeline, newest first, each one a single pass, or all of them as one mosaic.

Ten indices, live values

Vegetation (NDVI, EVI, NDRE, ReCI), moisture and burns (NDMI, NBR) and water (NDWI, MNDWI, NDCI for chlorophyll, NDTI for turbidity), one click each. Hover for the value.

Clouds masked

Each scene's own cloud layer hides clouds and their shadows, so an index shows the ground, not the weather.

Compare two dates

Put two days side by side and drag the divider: crops, floods, fires and building sites show their change.

Fields over time

Draw or upload your fields, lakes or estates and chart any index over them, clouds removed, water or land only, against the year before. Download the numbers, or share a read-only link.

Downloads and API

Every band or a single index as GeoTIFF, the view as PNG, and the same through a REST API with STAC search and map tiles.

Watch an area

Get an email with a picture when a new clear image of an area or field arrives, when an index changes sharply, and a summary every Monday.

Free to start

Get a key in a minute: 20,000 requests a month, 20 downloads a day, 50 fields and 3 watched areas, free. Or try the demo with no key at all.

Status in the open

Every part of the service is checked every 5 minutes, with 90 days of history at status.satellitedata.net.

Collections

Read from the public Sentinel-2 and Landsat archives on AWS. Each collection has its own page in the docs with bands, values and limits.

CollectionWhat it isPixel size
Sentinel-2 L2ASurface reflectance, atmospherically corrected10–60 m
Sentinel-2 L1CTop-of-atmosphere reflectance; tiles from zoom 1210–60 m
Landsat 8–9 Level-2Surface reflectance and surface temperature30 m
Landsat 8–9 Level-1Top-of-atmosphere reflectance, with the 15 m panchromatic band15–30 m

Getting access

The service runs on API keys. A free key gives 20,000 requests a month, 20 downloads a day, 50 fields and 3 watched areas: ask for one, confirm your email, and it arrives in a minute. Or try the demo, which needs no key, and read the docs.
