Dear ROM SAF GTS User



Issued 2014-07-23 05:47 UTC



Metop-B will undergo an in-plane manoeuvre on July 23 2014, around 12:48 UTC.

Please see mail 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.



The Metop-A products will not be affected.



With kind regards

The ROM SAF Team

Dear all,



I'm writing to let you know that Metop-B will undergo a planned in-plane manoeuvre on Wednesday, 23rd July 2014, around 12:48 UTC.



As usual, the GRAS/Metop-B processing will experience a reset of its Precise Orbit Determination system shortly after the even. GRAS/Metop-B level 1a (bending angle) as well as level 2 (refractivity as produced downstream by the ROM SAF) data will be degraded data for about 4 hours. We expect that nominal data quality will be restored for measurements taken from 17:00 UTC onwards.



GRAS/Metop-A data will not be affected.



With kind regards,



 Christian.
