Dear ROM SAF GTS User



Issued 2014-02-18 20:11 UTC



The Metop-B satellite will undergo a scheduled in-plane manoeuvre on

February 19, 2014. Please see the message from EUMETSAT below.



A temporary degradation of the upstream Metop-B/GRAS Level 1 products

is to be expected and as a result the ROM SAF Metop-B NRT products will

be flagged accordingly. Metop-A data are not affected by this event.



With kind regards

The ROM SAF Team

Dear all,



Metop-B will undergo a planned in-plane manoeuvre around 12:59 UTC.



As usual, the Precise Orbit Determination system of the GRAS processing will be reset shortly after the event, causing a 4 hour period of degraded bending angle data quality. We expect that Metop-B data will be of nominal quality again shortly after 17:00 UTC. The data will be flagged accordingly.



GRAS data from Metop-A will not be affected.



With kind regards from Eumetsat,



 Christian Marquardt.
