Due to a maintenance, Copernicus Sentinel products will not be available for download from colhub.met.no, colhub-archive.met.no and satellittdata.no on Thursday 22nd September. The maintenance will start at 08:00 CET and is expected to last until the end of the working day.
We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
A maintenance on satellittdata.no will happen on Tuesday 30th August, from 11:00 to 12:00 CET.
During this period satellittdata.no website will still be available, but only searching and viewing data will be possible. Downloading data will not be possible.
The European Space Agency and the European Commission announced on August 3rd that the Copernicus Sentinel-1B mission is officially over. The satellite has been unavailable since 23 December 2021 at 06:53 UTC.
Access to CF-NetCDF using OPeNDAP is still slightly unstable, but a new automatic failover server has been added and access seems to be somewhat more stable. Additional servers are scheduled for implementation in the coming weeks.
This interface is focusing on the possibilities opened by accessing data through OPeNDAP. OPeNDAP is a protocol that allows data streaming, in the sense that products are not required to be downloaded, but can be accessed without disk access. This implies that products are converted to NetCDF (SAFE is still available) which enables NBS to offer operations like subsetting and transformation (e.g. reformatting and reprojecting) more or less on the fly. Furthermore, it allows combination of products into spatial or temporal stacks of products for further processing.
Currently only Sentinel-2 is provided in this form, and NBS is working on Sentinel-1 access. Data are slightly postprocessed in NetCDF. All bands in Sentinel-2 are e.g. interpolated to the highest resolution, but using a lossless interpolation that allows users to access the original information.

This interface is the same as offered by e.g. SciHub. All data synchronised to the National Ground Segment are available as SAFE files in this interface.
