| Summary: | The Copernicus Programme, being Europe’s Earth Observation and Monitoring Programme led by the European Union, aims to provide, on a sustainable basis, reliable and timely services related to environmental and security issues. The Sentinel-3 mission forms part of the Copernicus Space Component. Its main objectives are to measure water-surface topography, sea surface temperature, ocean surface color, as well as inland water surface height, sea-ice thickness, and land ice surface measurement, in support of ocean forecasting systems, and for environmental and climate monitoring. The series of Sentinel-3 satellites ensures global, frequent, and near-real-time ocean, ice, sea-ice, and inland water monitoring, with the provision of observation data in a routine, long-term and continuous fashion, with a consistent quality and a high level of reliability and availability. The Copernicus Sentinel-3 (S3) mission is today flying in constellation following the successful launch of the S3B satellite (April 2018) and ... |
