Sentinel Hub Documentation
Sentinel Hub is a multi-spectral and multi-temporal big data satellite imagery service, capable of fully automated archiving, real-time processing and distribution of remote sensing data and related EO products, managed by Sinergise Ltd. For more information on Sinergise go to Third Party Services.
WMTS request
The Sentinel WMTS (Web Map Tile Service) service conforms to the WMTS standard. It provides access to Sentinel-2's 13 unprocessed bands (B01 through B12, with B8A following B08) as well as processed products such as true color imagery and NDVI. Access to the service is done via a custom server instance URL which will be provided to you upon registration. Provides access to the same bands product and additional informational layers as the WMS request except only one layer can be specified at once, even when only raw Sentinel-2 bands are used. As with the WMS service, WMTS is also only available via a user-preconfigured custom server instance URL.
The base URL for the WMTS service:
http://services.sentinel-hub.com/ogc/wmts/{INSTANCE_ID}
The service supports the same output formats as the WMS request and supports the standard WMTS requests GetTile
, GetCapabilities
. It supports WMTS version 1.0.0.
The WMTS service output image type can be a 1 or 3 component 8-bit PNG or JPEG; alternatively also an n-component 8 or 16-bit TIFF. Use the proper type when setting the "FORMAT" parameter. For JPEG, use "image/jpeg" or "image/jpg" and for PNG use "image/png". For TIFF, if you use just "image/tiff", the service will generate 8-bit TIFF for the products and 16-bit TIFF for the raw Sentinel-2 bands. If you want to force a specific TIFF bit depth, use "image/tiff;depth=8" or "image/tiff;depth=16". When PNG or TIFF is requested the "TRANSPARENT" parameter determines whether the produced image will have transparent pixels where no input data is available or not. For a list of supported coordinate reference systems check the GetCapabilities
result.
Check GetCapabilities
for a list of supported tile matrix sets which can be used for the TILEMATRIX and TILEMATRIXSET parameters.

Examples
Example below shows how to create the configuration for accessing a WMTS from a GetCapabilities response:
<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <title>WMTS Layer from Capabilities</title> <link rel="stylesheet" href="http://openlayers.org/en/v3.17.1/css/ol.css" type="text/css"> <script src="http://openlayers.org/en/v3.17.1/build/ol.js"></script> </head> <body> <div id="map" class="map"></div> <script> var parser = new ol.format.WMTSCapabilities(); var map; fetch('<ENTER YOUR WMTS URL HERE>?REQUEST=GetCapabilities').then(function(response) { return response.text(); }).then(function(text) { var result = parser.read(text); var options = ol.source.WMTS.optionsFromCapabilities(result, {layer: 'TRUE_COLOR', matrixSet: 'PopularWebMercator512'}); map = new ol.Map({ layers: [ new ol.layer.Tile({ source: new ol.source.OSM(), opacity: 0.7 }), new ol.layer.Tile({ opacity: 1, source: new ol.source.WMTS(options) }) ], target: 'map', view: new ol.View({ center: [19412406.33, -5050500.21], zoom: 5 }) }); }); </script> </body> </html>
