Richat Structure, Mauritania in 2022

Clearing up the weather

Endless sunshine, eternal summer - the Sentinel-2 cloudless layer combines trillions of pixels collected during differing weather conditions during the whole year of 2022 and merges them into a sunny homogeneous mosaic, almost free from satellite and atmospheric effects. Our thanks go to the European Commission and the European Space Agency for the free, full, and open Sentinel-2 data.

Lake Tekapo, New Zealand in 2022

Improved results

Less Clouds, Less Stripes: Bottom of the atmosphere and bidirectional reflectance distribution corrected (BRDF) data were used to make mosaic purely from the acquisitions taken in a single year gives you the opportunity to buy and use an unique satellite map.
Better Post-Processing: Sharper look, more balanced colors - our improved post-processing yields much better results in the various environments.

Feel free to use the provided service endpoints (WMTS or WMS) directly in your application. You may also download the data as rendered image mosaics directly from these services or more conveniently from our Sentinel-2 cloudless Download Service. Just make sure to follow the license conditions which are the attribution requirements for the corresponding year and non-commercial usage (2018, 2019, 2020, 2021 & 2022). The maximum request size is limited to 4096px, but you may stitch multiple requests to fit your needs.

If you are looking for the original GeoTIFF files from 2016 instead, have a look at this blog post. You may download the data as source GeoTIFFs from the AWS S3 bucket eox-s2maps in the eu-central-1 region. Warning: AWS may charge you for download bandwidth.
