Product details

Name	Snow & Ice Monitoring: River and Lake Ice Extent
Acronym	RLIE
Description	The Pan European High Resolution Snow & Ice products (HR-S&I) are provided at high spatial resolution (20 m x 20 m), and are derived from the Sentinel-2 constellation data. They are generated over the entire EEA-39. Lakes and rivers freeze across large parts of Europe during winter. In the northern European lowland areas lakes represent even a major component of terrestrial landscape. The River and Lake Ice Extent (RLIE) product is generated in NRT and informs of the presence of snow-covered or snow-free ice on the various water bodies described by the EU-HYDRO river and lake network database.
