The OLCI is an along-track or "push broom" scanner, meaning that the sensor array is arranged perpendicular to the path of flight. [19] This method essentially eliminates the scale distortion near the edge of an image that is common with across-track or "whisk broom" scanners .
Sentinel-2A, B, and C Active ESA: 2015 Constellation of three, each satellite carries MSI sensor for high spatial resolution imaging. Part of the Copernicus Programme. Sentinel-3A and B Active ESA: 2016 Constellation of two, each satellite carries sensors OLCI and SLSTR. Slightly coarser spatial resolution and more spectral bands than Sentinel-2.

Sentinel-3A is a European Space Agency Earth observation satellite dedicated to oceanography which launched on 16 February 2016. [5] It was built as a part of the Copernicus Programme , and is the first of four planned Sentinel-3 satellites.
The coastal zone color scanner (CZCS) was a multi-channel scanning radiometer aboard the Nimbus 7 satellite, predominately designed for water remote sensing. Nimbus 7 was launched 24 October 1978, and CZCS became operational on 2 November 1978.
Sentinel-3B is a European Space Agency Earth observation satellite dedicated to oceanography which launched on 25 April 2018. [1] It was built as a part of the Copernicus Programme , and is the second (after Sentinel-3A , launched 16 February 2016) of four planned Sentinel-3 satellites.
The AN/MPQ-64 Sentinel is an X-band electronically steered pulse-Doppler 3D radar system used to alert and cue Short Range Air Defense (SHORAD) weapons to the locations of hostile targets approaching their front line forces. It is currently produced by Raytheon Missiles & Defense.
