Dedicated to monitoring and forecasting the Earth’s health state, the Copernicus core services cover six main thematic domains. The services are provided to users free of charge.

Atmosphere (CAMS)

The Copernicus Atmospheric Monitoring Services (CAMS) provide continuous information and data on the composition of the atmosphere. The service describes the current situation, provides forecasts a few days ahead and analyses retrospective data records for recent years.

Marine Environment (CMEMS)

The Copernicus Marine Environment Monitoring Service (CMEMS) provides regular and systematic reference information on the physical state, variability and dynamics of the ocean and marine ecosystems of both the oceans worldwide and the European seas.

Land (CLMS)

The Copernicus Land Monitoring Service (CLMS) provides geographical information on land cover and on variables related to the vegetation state or the water cycle.

Climate Change (C3S)

The aim of the Copernicus Climate Change service is to build a European knowledge base in support of adaptation and mitigation policies. The service will provide access to information for monitoring and predicting climate change such as climate indicators and climate indices for both the identified climate drivers and the expected climate impacts.

Emergency Management (CEMS)

The Emergency Management Service provides information derived from satellite imagery, completed by available in situ or opensource data, to actors involved in crisis management, civil protection, humanitarian aid and external action communities.
