Sentinel 2 TOA - 10m - 5day¶
Description¶
Reflectance data from the Copernicus Sentinel-2 satellite is available for top-of-atmosphere(TOA) and for the earth surface reflectance(SR) in visible, near, and short wave infrared bands. Several vegetation indices are constructed from these bands such as NDVI, EVI, NDSI, NDWI.

Processing steps¶
- ClimateEngine applies the Cloud Score+ cloud mask produced by Google. We use the 'cs' band which provides 'pixel quality score based on spectral distance from a (theoretical) clear reference' set at a quality score of 60.
