Why people use Sentinel Hub
Sentinel Hub Satellite Imagery for Precise GIS Analysis
With this Connector, you just describe the area and the goal to your agent. It handles the STAC search, filters for cloud cover, and runs the processing scripts in the cloud. You get a clean, actionable map in seconds instead of a folder full of raw files.
What Vinkius changes
You get instant access to processed satellite data without the overhead of managing raw files.
Use it from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or another AI client you already have.

Before you connect
Questions about Sentinel Hub.
The practical details behind the request, access and result.
Can I use Sentinel Hub MCP to monitor crop health?
Yes, you can use it to generate NDVI maps that color-code vegetation density. This helps you see plant health across different fields and regions instantly.
How does Sentinel Hub MCP help with wildfire damage?
It provides access to burn severity indices and SWIR composites. Your agent can use these to identify exactly which areas were impacted by a fire.
Can I find cloud-free images of a specific city?
Yes, the Connector can filter the satellite catalog for scenes that fall below a specific cloud cover percentage, ensuring you get clear images for your analysis.
Does Sentinel Hub MCP support Landsat data?
It supports multiple missions, including Sentinel and Landsat. You can switch between these data collections depending on your specific needs.
Can I get statistics on vegetation density?
Yes, you can calculate mean, min, max, and standard deviation for vegetation indices over any area of interest with temporal aggregation.
Is Sentinel Hub MCP good for urban planning?
It is excellent for urban planning because it allows you to analyze land use changes and monitor urban expansion through multi-temporal statistical analysis.
What is an evalscript and how do I use one?
An evalscript is a small JavaScript program that tells Sentinel Hub how to process satellite bands into an output image. It defines which bands to use, how to combine them, and what colors to assign. You can use the generate_ndvi_evalscript or generate_true_color_evalscript capabilities to get ready-made evalscripts, then pass them to the process_image capability.
Can I analyze vegetation health with this server?
Absolutely. Generate an NDVI evalscript with the generate_ndvi_evalscript capability, then process imagery for your area of interest with the process_image capability. For time-series analysis, use the get_statistics capability with temporal aggregation to track vegetation changes over weeks or months. The search_cloud_free capability helps you find clean scenes without cloud contamination.
What is the difference between this server and the Copernicus Data Space server?
The Copernicus Data Space server focuses on product catalogue search and download. finding and retrieving raw satellite data files. Sentinel Hub focuses on on-the-fly processing. rendering images, computing indices, and generating statistics without downloading raw data. They complement each other: use Copernicus for data discovery and bulk download, Sentinel Hub for real-time analysis and visualization.
