Hello Ayoob,

Sentinel 1B is currently in commissioning phase of its mission, meaning the data are not generally available yet and no guarantee they are acquired routinely as will be when it is in full operational phase. But when the data access will be established, data from the commissioning phase will be probably published ex post.

Hi Tomas,

First of all thanks for your reply. you are right.

I visit ESA website and found that there are a lot of activities that must be completed before it is regularly supplying imagery to the Scientific Data Hub.

The ramp up timeline can be accessed at 

https://sentinels.copernicus.eu/web/sentinel/missions/ sentinel-1/data-distribution- policy/operations-ramp-up- phase

This details the main events that will occur and and estimated timeline for these events. also,the service will be free when it becomes available.

Hi!

I know that Google downloads all Sentinel -1 (and also 2) data, and publish them as intensity raster images. They are available from the Google Earth Engine interface.  To access them you will have to apply for a free GEE account.

Best regards,

Greger
