ESA would like to inform the SMOS data users that the full reprocessed SMOS level 2 sea surface salinity dataset is now available on the SMOS data dissemination service. Following the reprocessing that finished in May 2017 a "gap-filling" reprocessing was performed to align to the operational product start.

After more than 4 years of successful operations, Proba-V is consolidating its role as a key data provider to the Copernicus Global Land Service as well as a valuable complement to the Sentinel-2 and Sentinel-3 suite of optical sensors.

Consequently, to further promote the scientific and operational exploitation of Proba-V data, a second "Proba-V Symposium" is taking place from 29 to 31 May 2018 in Belgium.

We would like to inform the Swarm users that an Orbit Maintenance Manoeuvre was successfully performed on Swarm Alpha on 13 July 2017 starting at 14:17:55 UTC.

Due to urgent maintenance activities the EO Data Gateway portal (eogrid.esrin.esa.int) will be unavailable on 18 July from 14:00 to 18:00 CEST.

In relation to the previous communication we are pleased to inform you that the announced changes to the FTP layout are now effective as planned.

Due to an urgent maintenance activity, the EOLI-SA On-The-Fly (OTF) ERS-1/2 SAR_IMS collection will be unavailable from Thursday 13 July 2017 at 16:00 CEST until 09:00 CEST on Friday morning, 14 July.

We inform the Swarm users that, starting from 05 July 2017, the Absolute Vertical TEC (VTEC) values and corresponding elevation angles will be available in the Swarm Level 2 Cat-2 TEC products.

We inform the Swarm Users that because of an issue during the retrieval of the telemetry data from Swarm Charlie, a data gap is present in the Level 1B production on 04 July 2017 from 06:02 to 13:43 UTC.

Following the previous communication, we are pleased to inform you that the announced changes to the FTP layout will be effective on 12 July 2017. Please be aware that some service disruptions might happen during that day.

A new tool has been developed allowing users to watch in real time (less than a minute delay during the acquisition) the Landsat 8 acquisitions over Matera station footprint.
