Data
One page per collection: what it is, its bands with scale and offset, its quality layers, what is in the archive and requests to copy. Two collections are live on lean v1. Schema v1 defines eleven more, which have short pages until they ship.

Revisit is for the satellites of each collection together, at the equator. Ids and aliases are in Collections and ids; the machine-readable definitions are in GET /v1/schema.
Choosing between the two live collections
Section titled “Choosing between the two live collections”| Sentinel-2 L2A | Landsat 8-9 Level-2 | |
|---|---|---|
| Finest resolution | 10 m | 30 m |
| Scenes over one place | about every 5 days | about every 8 days |
| Record starts | 2015 | 2013 (and earlier missions later) |
| Thermal band | no | yes, surface temperature in kelvin |
| Red-edge bands | three | none |
| Pixel quality layer | SCL classes | QA_PIXEL bits |
| Reflectance from DN | DN × 0.0001 − 0.1 | DN × 0.0000275 − 0.2 |
| Tile zoom | 8 to 15 | 7 to 14 |
For anything that uses both, name bands by common name (red, nir08, swir16) so one request works on either. See Bands and the crosswalk.
What a collection page covers
Section titled “What a collection page covers”Each full page has the same sections: an overview of the mission and the source, basic facts, a band table with scale, offset and nodata, how units and harmonization change the values, the quality layers, what the archive holds, collection-specific search properties and presets, and requests to copy in curl and Python.
Planned collections
Section titled “Planned collections”Phases refer to the build plan for the full v1 service. P1 is an internal prototype, P2 the public launch, P3 the cross-sensor expansion and P4 adds Sentinel-1, the Level-1 archives and openEO. The plan has two rollout variants, Sentinel-first (S) and combined (C). They differ only in when the Landsat Level-2 collections, HLS and optical-sr arrive: P1 in variant C, P3 in variant S. The variant is still an open decision. The changelog records each collection when it goes live.
