Sentinel LSTM-A Mission

Objectives and Applications

LSTM will provide surface temperature observations over land and coastal regions in support of agriculture management services and possibly a range of additional services, by complementing the current visible (VIS) and near-infrared (NIR) Copernicus observations with high spatio-temporal resolution TIR ones.
