ERROR sentinel 2LA images with cloud percentage wrong

1

Hello,
I noticed some images recently indicating a wrong clod coverage percentage.

s3://sentinel-s2-l2a/tiles/20/H/QG/2024/7/29/0/

Example in EO browser. It shows almost 100% cloud cover percentage but the image is totally clean from clouds.
Please can you check what is happening ? Thanks, Magda

Hi Magdalena,

The cloud cover percentage is taken from the tile metadata. This will have been generated through Sen2Cor, the processing of which is implemented by ESA. Therefore, it’s likely the error has come from here. If you could provide an EO Browser link, then I can take a further look.
