Description
Dear GRAS SAF GTS User Issued: 2010-03-22 14:10 UTC Due to an outage of GRAS level 1b data no GRAS SAF products were dissminated this weekend between instrument sensing times 2010-03-19 23:28:20 UTC and 2010-03-20 06:26:46 UTC Please see message from EUMETSAT below. ---snip--- Subject: Metop 7 GRAS Data Outage on Saturday, 20th March 2010 Date: 2010-03-22 09:29 Dear all, during the night from Friday (19.03.2010) to Saturday (20.03.2010), the EPS data downlink station located at Svalbard suffered from a misconfiguration and lossed of four orbits of Metop-A science data (between 23:29 and 06:26 UTC). As a consequence, no higher level data products were produced for all Metop instruments including GRAS. After level 0 data became available again, the GRAS POD recovered as usual, and data quality had reached nominal levels again around 11:00 UTC. Note, however, that the GRAS level 1B data products continued to be flagged as poor until ~ 14:30 UTC. We apologize for any inconveniences that this data outage might have caused on your side. Regards, Christian. -- Dr. Christian Marquardt, Polar System Product Expert EUMETSAT, Am Kavalleriesand 31, D-64295 Darmstadt, Germany ---snip--- Kind regards The GRAS SAF Team
