Φ-Down

Φ-Down is a Python library designed to simplify access to Copernicus Data Space Ecosystem (CDSE) data. It provides a high-level interface for searching, filtering, and downloading Earth Observation products from Sentinel missions and complementary datasets.

Key Features

  • Authentication with CDSE using S3 credentials
  • Query products via the OData API with advanced filters (collection, AOI, time, cloud cover, orbit)
  • Retrieve products by name for direct access
  • Efficient parallel downloads via s5cmd
  • Built-in result visualization utilities
  • Support for Copernicus Sentinel and Contributing Missions

Supported Missions

  • Sentinel Missions: S1, S2, S3, S5P, S6
  • Complementary Data: Copernicus DEM, Global Mosaics, Landsat (5, 7, 8), ENVISAT MERIS, MODIS Terra/Aqua, S2GLC
  • Contributing Missions: ERS, Envisat, SPOT, TerraSAR-X/TanDEM-X, COSMO-SkyMed, Pléiades, RapidEye, DMC, Radarsat-2, GOSAT, GHGSat
