Python API¶

Quickstart¶

# connect to the API
from sentinelsat import SentinelAPI, read_geojson, geojson_to_wkt
from datetime import date

api = SentinelAPI('user', 'password', 'https://scihub.copernicus.eu/dhus')

# download single scene by known product id
api.download(<product_id>)

# search by polygon, time, and SciHub query keywords
footprint = geojson_to_wkt(read_geojson('/path/to/map.geojson'))
products = api.query(footprint,
                     date=('20151219', date(2015, 12, 29)),
                     platformname='Sentinel-2',
                     cloudcoverpercentage=(0, 30))

# download all results from the search
api.download_all(products)

# convert to Pandas DataFrame
products_df = api.to_dataframe(products)

# GeoJSON FeatureCollection containing footprints and metadata of the scenes
api.to_geojson(products)

# GeoPandas GeoDataFrame with the metadata of the scenes and the footprints as geometries
api.to_geodataframe(products)

# Get basic information about the product: its title, file size, MD5 sum, date, footprint and
# its download url
api.get_product_odata(<product_id>)

# Get the product's full metadata available on the server
api.get_product_odata(<product_id>, full=True)

Valid search query keywords can be found at the Copernicus Open Access Hub documentation.

Authentication¶

The Copernicus Open Access Hub and probably most Data Hubs require authentication. You can provide your credentials with SentinelAPI(<your username>, <your password>)(). Alternatively, you can use SentinelAPI(None, None)() and enter your credentials in a file .netrc in your user home directory in the following form:

machine scihub.copernicus.eu
login <your username>
password <your password>

Either way, if you get an error 401 Unauthorized, your credentials were wrong or not yet active for the endpoint you are contacting.

Sorting & Filtering¶

In addition to the search query keywords sentinelsat allows filtering and sorting of search results before download. To simplify these operations sentinelsat offers the convenience functions to_geojson(), to_dataframe() and to_geodataframe() which return the search results as a GeoJSON object, Pandas DataFrame or a GeoPandas GeoDataFrame, respectively. to_dataframe() and to_geodataframe() require pandas and geopandas to be installed, respectively.

In this example we query Sentinel-2 scenes over a location and convert the query results to a Pandas DataFrame. The DataFrame is then sorted by cloud cover and ingestion date. We limit the query to first 5 results within our timespan and download them, starting with the least cloudy scene. Filtering can be done with all data types, as long as you pass the id to the download function.

# connect to the API
from sentinelsat import SentinelAPI, read_geojson, geojson_to_wkt
from datetime import date

api = SentinelAPI('user', 'password', 'https://scihub.copernicus.eu/dhus')

# search by polygon, time, and SciHub query keywords
footprint = geojson_to_wkt(read_geojson('map.geojson'))
products = api.query(footprint,
                     date=('20151219', date(2015, 12, 29)),
                     platformname='Sentinel-2')

# convert to Pandas DataFrame
products_df = api.to_dataframe(products)

# sort and limit to first 5 sorted products
products_df_sorted = products_df.sort_values(['cloudcoverpercentage', 'ingestiondate'], ascending=[True, True])
products_df_sorted = products_df_sorted.head(5)

# download sorted and reduced products
api.download_all(products_df_sorted.index)

Getting Product Metadata¶

Sentinelsat provides two methods for retrieving product metadata from the server, one for each API offered by the Copernicus Open Access Hub:

query() for OpenSearch (Solr), which supports filtering products by their attributes and returns metadata for all matched products at once.
get_product_odata() for OData, which can be queried one product at a time but provides the full metadata available for each product, as well as information about the product file such as the file size and checksum, which are not available from OpenSearch.

Both methods return a dictionary containing the metadata items. More specifically, query() returns a dictionary with an entry for each returned product with its ID as the key and the attributes’ dictionary as the value.

All of the attributes returned by the OpenSearch API have a corresponding but differently named attribute in the OData’s full metadata response. See the DataHubSystem’s metadata definition files to find the exact mapping between them (OpenSearch attributes have a <solrField> tag added):

OData example¶

Only the most basic information available from the OData API is returned by default, if full=True is not set. The full metadata query response is quite large and not always required, so it is not requested by default.

>>> api.get_product_odata('04548172-c64a-418f-8e83-7a4d148adf1e')

LTA-Products¶

Copernicus Open Access Hub no longer stores all products online for immediate retrieval. Offline products can be requested from the Long Term Archive (LTA) and should become available within 24 hours. Copernicus Open Access Hub’s quota currently permits users to request an offline product every 30 minutes.

A product’s availability can be checked with a regular OData query by evaluating the Online property value.

product_info = api.get_product_odata(<product_id>)

if product_info['Online']:
    print('Product {} is online. Starting download.'.format(<product_id>))
    api.download(<product_id>)
else:
    print('Product {} is not online.'.format(<product_id>))

When trying to download an offline product with download() or download_all(), these methods will instead attempt to trigger its retrieval from the LTA.

Logging¶

Sentinelsat logs to sentinelsat and the API to sentinelsat.SentinelAPI.

There is no predefined logging handler, so in order to have your script print the log messages, either use logging.baseConfig

import logging

logging.basicConfig(format='%(message)s', level='INFO')

or add a custom handler for sentinelsat (as implemented in cli.py)

import logging

logger = logging.getLogger('sentinelsat')
logger.setLevel('INFO')

h = logging.StreamHandler()
h.setLevel('INFO')
fmt = logging.Formatter('%(message)s')
h.setFormatter(fmt)
logger.addHandler(h)

More Examples¶

Search Sentinel 2 by tile¶

To search for recent Sentinel 2 imagery by MGRS tile, use the tileid parameter:

from collections import OrderedDict
from sentinelsat import SentinelAPI

api = SentinelAPI('user', 'password')

tiles = ['33VUC', '33UUB']

query_kwargs = {
        'platformname': 'Sentinel-2',
        'producttype': 'S2MSI1C',
        'date': ('NOW-14DAYS', 'NOW')}

products = OrderedDict()
for tile in tiles:
    kw = query_kwargs.copy()
    kw['tileid'] = tile  # products after 2017-03-31
    pp = api.query(**kw)
    products.update(pp)

api.download_all(products)

NB: The tileid parameter only works for products from April 2017 onward due to missing metadata in SciHub’s DHuS catalogue. Before that, but only from December 2016 onward (i.e. for single-tile products), you can use a filename pattern instead:

kw['filename'] = '*_T{}_*'.format(tile)  # products after 2016-12-01

API Reference¶

query(area=None, date=None, raw=None, area_relation='Intersects', order_by=None, limit=None, offset=0, **keywords)¶

Query the OpenSearch API with the coordinates of an area, a date interval and any other search keywords accepted by the API.

Parameters:

area (str, optional) -- The area of interest formatted as a Well-Known Text string.
date (tuple of (str or datetime) or str, optional) --
A time interval filter based on the Sensing Start Time of the products. Expects a tuple of (start, end), e.g. (“NOW-1DAY”, “NOW”). The timestamps can be either a Python datetime or a string in one of the following formats:
- yyyyMMdd
- yyyy-MM-ddThh:mm:ss.SSSZ (ISO-8601)
- yyyy-MM-ddThh:mm:ssZ
- NOW
- NOW-<n>DAY(S) (or HOUR(S), MONTH(S), etc.)
- NOW+<n>DAY(S)
- yyyy-MM-ddThh:mm:ssZ-<n>DAY(S)
- NOW/DAY (or HOUR, MONTH etc.) - rounds the value to the given unit
Alternatively, an already fully formatted string such as “[NOW-1DAY TO NOW]” can be used as well.
raw (str, optional) -- Additional query text that will be appended to the query.
area_relation ({'Intersects', 'Contains', 'IsWithin'}, optional) --
What relation to use for testing the AOI. Case insensitive.
- Intersects: true if the AOI and the footprint intersect (default)
- Contains: true if the AOI is inside the footprint
- IsWithin: true if the footprint is inside the AOI
order_by (str, optional) -- A comma-separated list of fields to order by (on server side). Prefix the field name by ‘+’ or ‘-‘ to sort in ascending or descending order, respectively. Ascending order is used if prefix is omitted. Example: “cloudcoverpercentage, -beginposition”.
limit (int, optional) -- Maximum number of products returned. Defaults to no limit.
offset (int, optional) -- The number of results to skip. Defaults to 0.
**keywords -- Additional keywords can be used to specify other query parameters, e.g. relativeorbitnumber=70. See https://scihub.copernicus.eu/twiki/do/view/SciHubUserGuide/3FullTextSearch for a full list.

Range values can be passed as two-element tuples, e.g. cloudcoverpercentage=(0, 30). None can be used in range values for one-sided ranges, e.g. orbitnumber=(16302, None). Ranges with no bounds (orbitnumber=(None, None)) will not be included in the query.

The time interval formats accepted by the date parameter can also be used with any other parameters that expect time intervals (that is: ‘beginposition’, ‘endposition’, ‘date’, ‘creationdate’, and ‘ingestiondate’).

Returns:	Products returned by the query as a dictionary with the product ID as the key and the product’s attributes (a dictionary) as the value.
Return type:	dict[string, dict]

static format_query(area=None, date=None, raw=None, area_relation='Intersects', **keywords)¶: Create a OpenSearch API query string.

query_raw(query, order_by=None, limit=None, offset=0)¶

Do a full-text query on the OpenSearch API using the format specified in https://scihub.copernicus.eu/twiki/do/view/SciHubUserGuide/3FullTextSearch

DEPRECATED: use query(raw=...) instead. This method will be removed in the next major release.

Parameters:	query (str) -- The query string. order_by (str, optional) -- A comma-separated list of fields to order by (on server side). Prefix the field name by ‘+’ or ‘-‘ to sort in ascending or descending order, respectively. Ascending order is used, if prefix is omitted. Example: “cloudcoverpercentage, -beginposition”. limit (int, optional) -- Maximum number of products returned. Defaults to no limit. offset (int, optional) -- The number of results to skip. Defaults to 0.
Returns:	Products returned by the query as a dictionary with the product ID as the key and the product’s attributes (a dictionary) as the value.
Return type:	dict[string, dict]

count(area=None, date=None, raw=None, area_relation='Intersects', **keywords)¶

Get the number of products matching a query.

Accepted parameters are identical to SentinelAPI.query().

This is a significantly more efficient alternative to doing len(api.query()), which can take minutes to run for queries matching thousands of products.

Returns:	The number of products matching a query.
Return type:	int

static to_geojson(products)¶: Return the products from a query response as a GeoJSON with the values in their appropriate Python types.

static to_dataframe(products)¶: Return the products from a query response as a Pandas DataFrame with the values in their appropriate Python types.

static to_geodataframe(products)¶: Return the products from a query response as a GeoPandas GeoDataFrame with the values in their appropriate Python types.

get_product_odata(id, full=False)¶

Access OData API to get info about a product.

Returns a dict containing the id, title, size, md5sum, date, footprint and download url of the product. The date field corresponds to the Start ContentDate value.

If full is set to True, then the full, detailed metadata of the product is returned in addition to the above.

Parameters:	id (string) -- The UUID of the product to query full (bool) -- Whether to get the full metadata for the Product. False by default.
Returns:	A dictionary with an item for each metadata attribute
Return type:	dict[str, Any]

download(id, directory_path='.', checksum=True)¶

Download a product.

Uses the filename on the server for the downloaded file, e.g. “S1A_EW_GRDH_1SDH_20141003T003840_20141003T003920_002658_002F54_4DD1.zip”.

Incomplete downloads are continued and complete files are skipped.

Parameters:	id (string) -- UUID of the product, e.g. ‘a8dd0cfd-613e-45ce-868c-d79177b916ed’ directory_path (string, optional) -- Where the file will be downloaded checksum (bool, optional) -- If True, verify the downloaded file’s integrity by checking its MD5 checksum. Throws InvalidChecksumError if the checksum does not match. Defaults to True.
Returns:	product_info -- Dictionary containing the product’s info from get_product_info() as well as the path on disk.
Return type:	dict
Raises:	`InvalidChecksumError` -- If the MD5 checksum does not match the checksum on the server.

download_all(products, directory_path='.', max_attempts=10, checksum=True)¶

Download a list of products.

Takes a list of product IDs as input. This means that the return value of query() can be passed directly to this method.

File names on the server are used for the downloaded files, e.g. “S1A_EW_GRDH_1SDH_20141003T003840_20141003T003920_002658_002F54_4DD1.zip”.

In case of interruptions or other exceptions, downloading will restart from where it left off. Downloading is attempted at most max_attempts times to avoid getting stuck with unrecoverable errors.

Parameters:

products (list) -- List of product IDs
directory_path (string) -- Directory where the downloaded files will be downloaded
max_attempts (int, optional) -- Number of allowed retries before giving up downloading a product. Defaults to 10.
checksum (bool, optional) -- If True, verify the downloaded files’ integrity by checking its MD5 checksum. Throws InvalidChecksumError if the checksum does not match. Defaults to True.

Raises:

Raises the most recent downloading exception if all downloads failed.

Returns:

dict[string, dict] -- A dictionary containing the return value from download() for each successfully downloaded product.
dict[string, dict] -- A dictionary containing the product information for products whose retrieval from the long term archive was successfully triggered.
set[string] -- The list of products that failed to download.

static get_products_size(products)¶: Return the total file size in GB of all products in the OpenSearch response.

static check_query_length(query)¶

Determine whether a query to the OpenSearch API is too long.

The length of a query string is limited to approximately 3938 characters but any special characters (that is, not alphanumeric or -_.*) will take up more space.

Parameters:	query (str) -- The query string
Returns:	Ratio of the query length to the maximum length
Return type:	float

check_files(paths=None, ids=None, directory=None, delete=False)¶

Verify the integrity of product files on disk.

Integrity is checked by comparing the size and checksum of the file with the respective values on the server.

The input can be a list of products to check or a list of IDs and a directory.

In cases where multiple products with different IDs exist on the server for given product name, the file is considered to be correct if any of them matches the file size and checksum. A warning is logged in such situations.

The corrupt products’ OData info is included in the return value to make it easier to re-download the products, if necessary.

Parameters:	paths (list[string]) -- List of product file paths. ids (list[string]) -- List of product IDs. directory (string) -- Directory where the files are located, if checking based on product IDs. delete (bool) -- Whether to delete corrupt products. Defaults to False.
Returns:	A dictionary listing the invalid or missing files. The dictionary maps the corrupt file paths to a list of OData dictionaries of matching products on the server (as returned by `SentinelAPI.get_product_odata()`).
Return type:	dict[str, list[dict]]

sentinelsat.read_geojson(geojson_file)¶: Read a GeoJSON file into a GeoJSON object.

sentinelsat.geojson_to_wkt(geojson_obj, feature_number=0, decimals=4)¶

Convert a GeoJSON object to Well-Known Text. Intended for use with OpenSearch queries.

In case of FeatureCollection, only one of the features is used (the first by default). 3D points are converted to 2D.

Parameters:	geojson_obj (dict) -- a GeoJSON object feature_number (int, optional) -- Feature to extract polygon from (in case of MultiPolygon FeatureCollection), defaults to first Feature decimals (int, optional) -- Number of decimal figures after point to round coordinate to. Defaults to 4 (about 10 meters).
Returns:	string of comma separated coordinate tuples (lon, lat) to be used by SentinelAPI
Return type:	polygon coordinates

Exceptions¶

exception sentinelsat.SentinelAPIError(msg=None, response=None)¶

Invalid responses from DataHub.

msg¶

The error message.

Type:	str

response¶

The response from the server as a requests.Response object.

Type:	requests.Response

exception sentinelsat.InvalidChecksumError¶: MD5 checksum of a local file does not match the one from the server.
