Sentinel-5  

Definition

  • SENTINEL-5 is a European Earth observation mission developed to support the European Commission Copernicus Programme for monitoring the earth. The SENTINEL-5 mission consists in a single instrument which is a UV-VIS-NIR-SWIR spectrometer observing the earth in nadir mode with a wide swath. It is embarked as a Customer Furnished Item (CFI) on the MetOp-SG A satellite (illustrated in Figure 1) which is operated by EUMETSAT as part of the EPS-SG (EUMETSAT Polar System Second Generation) system. The main objective of the SENTINEL-5 mission is to perform atmospheric measurements, with high spatio-temporal resolution, relating to air quality, climate forcing, ozone and UV radiation and providing a daily global coverage.
