The Metop-A satellite will undergo a scheduled manoeuvre on
14 January 2015. Please see the message from EUMETSAT below.

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

Subject: GRAS/Metop-A degraded data on Wednesday, 14.01.15, due to satellite manoeuvre

Dear all,

a Happy New 2015 from the Ro team at Eumetsat!

Metop-A will undergo a planned in-plane manoeuvre on

Wednesday, 14. January 2015, ~12:36 UTC

As usual, the Precise Orbit Determination component of the GRAS/Metop-A processing will undergo a reset shortly after the event, with a 4-hour of degraded GRAS/Metop-A data afterwards. We expect that data will be of nominal quality again around 16:45 UTC.

GRAS/Metop-B data will not be affected.

With kind regards,

Christian.
