After 2022-01-25, Sentinel-2 scenes with PROCESSING_BASELINE '04.00' or above have their DN (value) range shifted by 1000. The HARMONIZED collection shifts data in newer scenes to be in the same range as in older scenes. Sentinel-2 is a wide-swath, high-resolution, multi-spectral imaging mission supporting Copernicus Land Monitoring studies, including the monitoring of vegetation, soil and water cover, as well as observation of inland waterways and coastal areas. The Sentinel-2 data contain 13 UINT16 spectral bands representing TOA reflectance scaled by 10000. See the Sentinel-2 User Handbook for details. QA60 is a bitmask band that contained rasterized cloud mask polygons until Feb 2022, when these polygons stopped being produced. Starting in February 2024, legacy-consistent QA60 bands are constructed from the MSK_CLASSI cloud classification bands. For more details, see the full explanation of how cloud masks are computed.. Each Sentinel-2 product (zip archive) may contain multiple granules. Each granule becomes a separate Earth Engine asset. EE asset ids for Sentinel-2 assets have the following format: COPERNICUS/S2/20151128T002653_20151128T102149_T56MNN. Here the first numeric part represents the sensing date and time, the second numeric part represents the product generation date and time, and the final 6-character string is a unique granule identifier indicating its UTM grid reference (see MGRS). The Level-2 data produced by ESA can be found in the collection COPERNICUS/S2_SR. For datasets to assist with cloud and/or cloud shadow detection, see COPERNICUS/S2_CLOUD_PROBABILITY and GOOGLE/CLOUD_SCORE_PLUS/V1/S2_HARMONIZED.
