According to Bloomsbergquint, Sentinel-6 will update maps of the oceans covering 70% of the planet every 10 days. The satellite is packed with powerful new digital altimeters, instruments that bounce electromagnetic pulses off the globe’s surface to detect millimeter-scale changes in elevation.
It will also collect data that will help improve weather forecasts and climate models.
