Dear,

There is no in-built function that could increase the Landsat 8 resolution. The data fusion option does enable you to sharpen Landsat imagery based on Sentinel-2, but the script uses information from both collections to deliver final results, so you won’t be getting “only” Landsat 8. Specifically, the script creates a weighted average of the three Landsat 8 true color bands, and a weighted average of Sentinel-2 true color bands, and then divides the two. In output, Landsat true color bands are then multiplied by this result.

If you’re interested in the script, copy this CURL request to the Requests Builder and click parse. You can see the script in the Evalscript panel on the left.

Hi,

note that if you want to technically resample the data, you can simply set the resolution in the request to 10m and the data will be resampled. By default “nearest neighbour” interpolation will be used, but you can also try bicubic or bilinear.

You might also want to check the blog post, which describes the “pan-sharpening” of the Landsat with Sentinel-2. But be aware that Sentinel-2 does not have a panchromatic band, so these methods are somehow experimental:

Hi,

Realize this thread is a little old, but I’m also interested in resampling. I can see that specifying 10m resolution would resample the layer to 10m resolution, but it would be very useful to also specify which grid you want to resample to. This would allow multiple layers to be available on exactly the same grid. I take it this still isn’t possible in sentinel-hub?

Thanks

Hi 

the grid is defined by choosign the CRS and setting BBOX of the request.
Or are you referring to Batch reqeusts, where the grid is actually pre-defined?

docs.sentinel-hub.com

Batch Processing API

Batch Processing API enables users to request data for large areas. Contact us to give it a try.

Best

Thanks

I think I can see how that would work, but does that then mean that if you specify 10m resolution for sentinel 2 with two different but overlapping BBOXs then the grid used for both requests will be different?

Cheers

Not, if you take care that BBOX and CRS-es are compatible.

As an example - if you use UTM CRS (which is recommended for Sentinel-2, to avoid reprojection) and you define one BBOX as (-12130,5418450,41520,5447540 - the “native” UTM grid by S2) and then next BBOX as (-12135,5418455,41525,5447545 - shifted by 5 meters), then yes, grids will be different. But if the second BBOX will still be aligned with S2 (i.e. 9510,5406460,88920,5437470), grid will be the same.

Sentinel Hub API tries to fit the data in the area defined by the user, not overriding instructions.
