Sentinel Satellite Imagery for Agriculture

Monitor more acres with Sentinel satellite imagery

Reliable, broad-scale Sentinel-2 imagery in FarmQA helps you monitor crop conditions, track seasonal trends, prioritize scouting, and make informed decisions across every field you manage.

Sentinel-2 satellite passes highlighted across a 30-day calendar, showing field imagery captured approximately every 5 to 7 days.
Satellite passes over the same field in a single month. Blue days represent Sentinel-2 and other days show more frequent Planet passes.
With Sentinel-2 passes every 5–7 days, you get consistent field visibility to track crop development and spot changes throughout the season.

Patterns

See the patterns that shape your field

Sentinel-2 gives you two things at once: enough spatial detail to see meaningful field variability and a reliable revisit schedule for tracking it as the season moves.
At 10m resolution, you can identify broader patterns and areas of variability across a field, even when you’re managing hundreds or thousands of acres. With a new pass approximately every 5 to 7 days, you get a consistent view of crop development throughout the season.
Cloud cover can affect how many usable images are available, but Sentinel’s regular revisit schedule gives you consistent opportunities to see how fields are changing.

Insight

Turn broad-scale visibility into agronomic insight

Sentinel gives you more than a view from above. In QA Advisor, imagery is automatically clipped to your field boundaries and processed into field-level layers, so it becomes part of the same workflow you use to scout, analyze fields, and make agronomic decisions.

Monitor crop development

Follow field conditions throughout the growing season and compare changes from one image to the next.

Guide scouting priorities

Use imagery to identify areas of variability and help direct scouts toward portions of the field that warrant a closer look.

Identify stable field patterns

Use consistent imagery over time to recognize broader patterns of variability that can help inform management zones and field-level decisions.

Compare fields and seasons

Use current and historical imagery to evaluate seasonal trends, benchmark field performance, and put current conditions into context.
Indices

See more than the satellite image

QA Advisor automatically processes Sentinel imagery into agronomy-ready views and vegetation indices, helping you evaluate crop development and field variability in different ways. Available views and indices include:

Choose the view that best fits what you’re evaluating, then compare imagery across a field or over time to identify patterns worth investigating.
History

Know whether it's new or a pattern

Current imagery tells you what’s happening now. Historical imagery can help you understand whether a pattern is new, seasonal, or something that appears year after year. With up to five years of historical Sentinel imagery available, you can compare seasons, identify recurring field patterns, benchmark crop development, and better understand the variability you’re seeing today. Combine imagery with FarmQA Analytics to add another layer of context, including long-term NDVI trend tracking at the field level.
Pricing

Priced for real operations

Sentinel imagery and map layers are priced per-acre, reflecting the actual coverage you need rather than a flat platform fee.
Is Sentinel a good fit?
Sentinel is a strong choice when you want consistent satellite visibility across a large number of acres for seasonal monitoring, scouting guidance, and field-level trend analysis.
Need more spatial detail or more frequent imagery for intensive scouting, high-value crops, or variable-rate programs?
