Arpa Piemonte - Sentinel 2 image mosaic - Summer 2022

The image is a multitemporal mosaic produced from the collection of images acquired by the pair of Sentinel 2A-2B satellites of the European Copernicus program during the summer of 2022 over Piedmont. For each of the bands of visible light from the multi-time stack (B4 Red, B3 Green, B2 Blue) the median reflectance value of each pixel was calculated to arrive at composing an image in real colors of seasonal synthesis. Before merging into the stack, the individual images were appropriately masked to eliminate cloud cover. The mosaic was created by Arpa Piemonte as part of the activities connected to the 2021 national soil consumption monitoring project conducted by the National System for Environmental Protection (SNPA) through the coordination of ISPRA and the involvement of various regional agencies. The project aims to monitor the transformations of the territory due to urban, infrastructural, commercial expansions, etc. with the consequent loss of natural, agricultural and semi-natural soil, understood as an essential and fundamentally non-renewable environmental resource.

lineage	The dataset constitutes a mosaic of images acquired by the Sentinel 2A satellite during the summer of 2021. Although the images that make up the mosaic refer to a single season, they are not necessarily contemporary: in fact, several satellite passages are needed to cover the entire regional territory . The images were downloaded from the European site https://scihub.copernicus.eu/ which makes available all the satellite images acquired within the Copernicus project. The choice of images to use (in the form of tiles) falls on those with less cloud cover and, when incomplete, on those that integrate the missing portions. After a suitable composition of bands (4 out of 13 available) and visual stretching to improve readability, they are mosaiced and published in the form of a cache.
