The purpose of this document is to specify an https RESTful Application Programming Interface (API) through which Sentinel (or Auxiliary) data products may be discovered and downloaded by authorised users from a Production Interface delivery Point (PRIP). PRIPs are intended as the standard pick-up points for systematically-produced Sentinel data products from within the PDGSs, replacing the diverse interfaces currently in place inside each Sentinel PDGS. The API is (optionally) extended to manage on-demand production, whereby an order triggers a production that is delivered through the Interface delivery Point. In this case the API is referred to within this document as the On-Demand Production Interface delivery Point (ODPRIP).
The specification of this API is intended for:
- The discovery and download of systematically produced data products
- The discovery of the processing services available for a given type of parent product
- The submission of on-demand processing requests for pre-identified parent products
- Monitoring of on-demand processing requests
