- Access to the web-based sandbox environment to easily and quickly create indicator-based products - Sentinel Playground and EO Browser.
How do I use Sentinel Hub services?
The resources below will help you get easy access to open satellite data (Sentinel, Landsat, MODIS, etc.) and integrate various satellite data into your application:
- Examples of OGC WMS requests
- API documentation
- Integration in Python or Machine Learning process
- Machine learning example
- Other integration examples
- Sentinelhub-js
- QGIS
- Sentinel Playground and EO Browser source code
What if I want to participate but don’t have programming skills?
You can use our browser-based tools to analyse the satellite imagery needed for your application. The following material will get you started with custom scripting in EO Browser:
- Creating a script in EO Browser
- Our custom script website with all the resources
- Advanced custom script documentation
- Custom script repository with many useful scripts
- Custom Script Tutorial for beginners, who are not familiar with coding or remote sensing.
- Custom Scripts webinar
- Multi-Temporal Scripts and Data Fusion webinar
Webinars
Watch our webinars for more information on different topics, such as Sentinel Hub Process API, OGC API with QGIS Integration, Custom Scripts, Multi-Temporal Scripts and Data Fusion, eo-learn basics and more.
All our webinars are available on the Sentinel Hub YouTube channel.

Award for the Winning Team of “Best use of Sentinel Hub”
One year Sentinel Hub subscription worth 5,000 € (Enterprise S package) that can help you develop your idea and who knows, maybe even create a start-up.
What do you actually get, since the data is free anyway?
- Copernicus and Landsat data are indeed free (thanks to European Commission and USGS), but there are many steps required to get value from these data - downloading, processing, storage, distribution. All of this takes time and requires IT resources that add cost.
- Sentinel Hub provides seamless and instant access to this data with most common processing steps (band math, clipping, mosaicking, time-series analysis, etc.) in a way that can be integrated with third party applications.
- A 30-day trial allows you to get familiar with the service, configure your workflow, share it as an API, and integrate with a third party application.
- The prize, a 1-year subscription, makes it possible to consolidate the prototype, offer it to potential customers and generate revenue! The ideal way to build a startup based on your hackathon idea.
