Sentinel-1 SAR observation scenario implements a baseline pre-defined mission observation scenario, making optimum use of the SAR duty cycle within the technical constraints of the overall system
With the second Sentinel-1 satellite in orbit the mission observation frequency now has significantly increased - for many regions of the Earth it is now up to 12 days. This temporal information dimension will enable further EO applications from monitoring of crop dynamics to seasonal water body in a timely manner and independent of cloud coverage - openly available to everyone.
