This site is free or i have i to pay something?


Hi, welcome to Sentinel Hub. I would suggest starting out by exploring the EO Browser application. There is some material here that will help you see what features this free application has.

Then, once familiar with this, if you have some more questions then please let us know 🙂 also, if you’re looking to perform some more advanced analytics then you can look into the APIs that Sentinel Hub offers (this is a paid for service but you currently have access to these APIs with a free trial).

We also have plenty of great introduction videos on our YouTube channel and an in depth Medium blog channel too.


How can i see the new streets? And then the other confomations (mountains, rivers and so
on )?

Hi and welcome! To detect new roads or construction using Sentinel Hub, you can use Sentinel-2 imagery and compare time-series images with the EO Browser. Look for visual changes in land surfaces, especially differences in reflectance or texture that indicate development.

If you're working on road construction or planning to, tools like Sentinel Hub can help monitor progress remotely. For an example of real-world application in construction and development, feel free to check out Premier Builders — we focus on quality construction projects that benefit from modern monitoring and planning tools.

Hope that helps!

You can use your Sentinel Hub Dashboard to spot new roads under construction by tracking satellite imagery over time.
