This product describes the snow season in terms of temporality as it provides, within an hydrological year and for each pixel, the number of days with snow cover, as well as the first and the last day of the longest observed snow period. It has a spatial resolution of 100 m x 100 m. Each product is composed of separate files corresponding to the different layers of the product, and another metadata file." The product is also available in another projection as tiles aligned with Sentinel-2 (UTM/WGS84) at 20 m x 20 m. SP S2 is one of the products of the pan-European High-Resolution Water Snow & Ice portfolio (HR-WSI), which are provided at high spatial resolution from the Sentinel-2 and Sentinel-1 constellations data from September 1, 2016 onwards.
