Description
See also collection COPERNICUS/S2_SR_HARMONIZED that shifts data with PROCESSING_BASELINE '04.00' or above (after 2022-01-25) to be in the same range as in older scenes.
Sentinel-2 is a wide-swath, high-resolution, multi-spectral imaging mission supporting Copernicus Land Monitoring studies, including the monitoring of vegetation, soil and water cover, as well as observation of inland waterways and coastal areas.
The Sentinel-2 L2 data are downloaded from scihub. They were computed by running sen2cor. WARNING: ESA did not produce L2 data for all L1 assets, and earlier L2 coverage is not global.
The assets contain 12 UINT16 spectral bands representing SR scaled by 10000 (unlike in L1 data, there is no B10). There are also several more L2-specific bands (see band list for details). See the Sentinel-2 User Handbook for details.
QA60 is a bitmask band that contained rasterized cloud mask polygons until February 2022, when these polygons stopped being produced. Starting in February 2024, legacy-consistent QA60 bands are constructed from the MSK_CLASSI cloud classification bands. For more details, see the full explanation of how cloud masks are computed.
EE asset ids for Sentinel-2 L2 assets have the following format: COPERNICUS/S2_SR/20151128T002653_20151128T102149_T56MNN. Here the first numeric part represents the sensing date and time, the second numeric part represents the product generation date and time, and the final 6-character string is a unique granule identifier indicating its UTM grid reference (see MGRS).
For datasets to assist with cloud and/or cloud shadow detection, see COPERNICUS/S2_CLOUD_PROBABILITY and GOOGLE/CLOUD_SCORE_PLUS/V1/S2_HARMONIZED.
