How can I know which Sentinel Tile is further north?

Geographic Information Systems Asked by Ruben Silva on September 28, 2021

Sentinel divides the planet surface into tiles, represented in the figure below. I was wondering if there is a programmatic way to compare two of those tile ids and "calculate" which is further north?

One Answer

You could write a function that extracts and compares the last letter of each id. The tile whose letter has the highest lexicographic order, is further north than the other.
