Sentinel-4, -5 and -5P

23 AIBR. 2014 3385

Sentinel-4 and Sentinel-5 will be carried on meteorological satellites and will provide data for atmospheric composition monitoring from geostationary and polar orbits, respectively. In addition, a Sentinel-5 Precursor mission is being developed to reduce data gaps between Envisat, in particular the Sciamachy instrument, and the launch of Sentinel-5.
