Abstract
Democratization of technologies and dedicated space programs developed in the last decades have immensely advanced the field of remote imagery and sensing to a mature state where it can enhance the quality of life on earth. The Copernicus Sentinel program, directed by European Space Agency, has provided in the last years a continuous and stable flow of data coming from space which has become indispensable for environmental monitoring, resource management, and disaster response. Data coming from Sentinel-1 and Sentinel-2 satellites have immensely boosted the research in the agricultural field providing new tools to tackle new challenges and develop technologies for general purpose.
These sources cover the field of optical and near-optical with Sentinel-2 data, while Sentinel-1 provides radar data, which has the unique ability to capture information day and night, regardless of atmospheric conditions, including cloud cover
