i am trying to acquire all seneing/acquisition dates via sentinel2 for the following specifications:
geojson:
'{"type":"Polygon","coordinates":[[[1017401.4739273358,6745220.552066468],[1017305.9276419794,6745679.174236178],[1018748.676550862,6745640.955722036],[1018614.911751363,6744618.610468722],[1017926.9784967965,6744647.274354328],[1018003.4155250816,6745067.6780098975],[1017401.4739273358,6745220.552066468]]]}',
from-date:
'2024-12-01T00:00:00'
until-date:
'2024-12-31T23:59:59'
results:
["2024-12-29T10:36:35Z","2024-12-29T10:36:31Z","2024-12-24T10:36:35Z","2024-12-24T10:36:31Z","2024-12-19T10:36:33Z","2024-12-19T10:36:29Z","2024-12-14T10:36:35Z","2024-12-14T10:36:31Z","2024-12-09T10:36:35Z","2024-12-09T10:36:31Z"]'
is it ever possible that the acquisition times are separated by seconds? could you please clarify why such results are received?
Hi,
Yes of course this is possible. If you check a larger area of interest in EO Browser you will see how every Sentinel-2 swath is collected continuously and is commonly separated by seconds.
If you check your AOI it intersects several Sentinel-2 tiles that will all have been collected within seconds of each other.
Thank you for your answer.
however, i think the AOI or the geometry i provied in my question is not that large?let me know what do you think please?
The area does not matter, please check this in future. This time, I have checked in EO Browser for you but as you can see your field of interest is intersected by two tiles.
good morning
thank you.
please bear with me. Since an AOI is intersected with two tiles, does that indicates that that AOI was scanned by two sensors?!
You can check the AOI in Catalog API. Here you will see if the platform is S2-A or S2-B. Almost certainly it will be the same sensor though.
