Copernicus High Resolution Layer Water and Wetness 2015

Water and Wetness product for EEA39. The combined Water and Wetness product is a thematic product showing the occurrence of water and wet surfaces over the period from 2009 to 2015. This layer is based on multi-temporal and multi-seasonal optical high-resolution satellite imagery. In addition, this layer is also based on radar information (Sentinel-1 data) with a geometric resolution of 10 m on a pan-European basis. A multitude of optical and SAR imagery is used, covering a prolonged time series of 7 years, which aim at capturing the intra-annual dynamics as much as possible within a given area and lead to one image composite per season (each season covered by 3 months) and year during the observation period. Current zones of permanent water, temporary water, permanent wet and temporary wet areas
