The image was produced by Dr David Moore from the National Centre for Earth Observation (NCEO), based in the Leicester Institute for Space and Earth Observation, as a test of new software that has been developed to make use of the data from Sentinel-2.

Dr Moore said: “We have a system in the Earth Observation Science Group that collects data in almost near-real time and I connect with other users of the system on dedicated forums to discuss and share software and new data developments.”
