| Upgrade of NRT ROM SAF processing system on 2 June 2016 |

| Description |
| Dear ROM SAF GTS User Issued : 2016-06-01 15:28 UTC As previously announced, the ROM SAF processing system will be upgraded from GPAC 0.4.0 to GPAC 0.4.1 on June 2, 2016. This system upgrade consists of code changes related to the internal format which do not affect the quality and format of the operational Level 2 products. In addition, two minor issues related to the retrieval of refractivity will be fixed. The implication of this fix is that retrieved profiles of refractivity will be less smooth. As a result, the standard deviation will increase slightly and in the height range from 10 to 25 km it will change from about 0.50 % to 0.55 %. The content in the BUFR files will not change, but the 1Dvar solution for occultations for which the refractivity is non-nominal will also become available with a quality flag (descriptor 0 33 039 in BUFR, bit 7) indicating that 'Meteorological processing' was non-nominal. A confirmation will be sent out after the upgrade. Do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions regarding the upgrade. Kind regards The ROM SAF Team |
