ESA is pleased to announce the official release of the of Copernicus Sentinel-5P Aerosol Layer Height product on the Copernicus Sentinel-5P Pre-operations Data Hub. The products are available in Near Real Time, Offline and Reprocessed timeliness.

The SciHub access point of the Copernicus Open Access Hub experienced unscheduled downtimes for the OpenSearch API on 29 September 2019, from:

• 06:30 to 7:38 UTC
• 10:23 to 10:52 UTC.

• OLC  Near Real Time L1/L2 FR/and RR from 11:51:39 to 18:01:06 UTC and from 2019-0926T184412 to 20190927T054804
• SLSTR Near Real Time  L1/L2 from 12:48:41 to 15:19:41 and from 20:28:30 to 03:54:48
• SYN Short Time Critical data from sensing time 12:48:41 to 15:19:41 UTC and from 20:28:30 to 03:54:48 UTC
• SRAL Near real Time and Short Time Critical L1/L2 from 12:49:54 16:31:39 UTC.

Due to on board activities performed on 26 September OLC/SLSTR/SRAL Near Real Time, Short time Critical and Non Time Critical Copernicus Sentinel-3B data are missing between 13:00:00 and 14:30:00 UTC (orbit 7398).

Featuring ECOPOTENTIAL, a European funded project that focuses on a set of internationally recognised protected areas, this video describes how the unprecedented availability of satellite data allow scientists to understand large scale changes in our environment and how best to protect it. 

Due to a scheduled decontamination activity on the Copernicus Sentinel-3B SLSTR instrument, all the related NRT/STC/NTC user products will be missing or degraded in the following days.

Copernicus Sentinel-1A was unavailable on 14 September between 00:43 and 10:17 UTC, due to a SAR anomaly. No data were generated during this period.
