MUSCATE : New tiles in Europe will be added within Theia’s production of Sentinel-2 L2A products

=> Just before the holiday period, we are very happy to tell that all the sites that had been selected by Theia for the production of Sentinel-2 Level 2A products are now in production within MUSCATE. for Theia Land data center. The number of tiles processed each days often tops 400 ! Only a couple of sites need a few more days to be completed.

But that’s not the only good news : given we have some production margins, we are going to add 200 tiles in Europe : Spain, Portugal, Italy, Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, Switzerland, and small parts of Germany and Austria will be included in Theia’s production. The new tiles, which appear in red in the image above, will be available in August, starting from images acquired in December 2016. We are also talking with other partners to generalize MAJA processing over Europe.  Finally, regarding Sentinel-2B, a few weeks will be necessary 1) to get some rest, 2) check the quality of our products. S2B data release from Theia should happen in September.

The missing link to valorize CESBIO’s applicative research works

=>  My colleagues at CESBIO are extremely creative! Over the past ten years, they have developed a wide range of new products and methods for extracting information from Copernicus data. They don’t just develop and validate the method on a few sites; they continue their work until they have produced data for the whole of […]

Le chaînon manquant dans la valorisation des travaux de recherche en télédétection

=> Mes collègues du CESBIO sont très créatifs ! Ils ont mis au point, au cours des dix dernières années, un grand nombre de nouveaux produits et de méthodes d’extraction de l’information à partir des données Copernicus (Sentinel-1 et 2). Et bien souvent, ils ne s’arrêtent pas à la mise au point de la méthode […]

Sentinel-2 overtakes Landsat in scientific litterature

OpenAlex is a new, yet already very useful, open database for exploring scientific literature. For an upcoming blog post on the CNES Datacampus website, I analysed the proportion of papers that used only one of the Sentinel-2 or Landsat missions, as well as those that used both, in 2025. What struck me was that Sentinel-2 […]
