The Copernicus Sentinel-1A and -1B satellites have increased the number and quality of detections of icebergs in the waters around Greenland.

Sentinel-3A SLSTR anomaly

15 February 2017

Due to an on-board anomaly on Sentinel-3A, SLSTR products starting from 14 February 2017, 08:09:05 UTC are degraded or missing.

Following useful feedback and agreement with the European Commission it has been decided to rename the "Sentinels Scientific Data Hub" to "Copernicus Open Access Hub".
Due to a Ground Segment anomaly, Sentinel-2A data acquired from approximately 15:00 UTC on 11 February were not made timely available to users in the data hubs. Data dissemination resumed in the morning on 13 February, for data acquired from approximately 00:30 on 12 February. The recovery of the missing products and the return to nominal data availability are expected in the coming days.

Due to a planned PDGS maintenance, Sentinel-2A data products will not be published in the data hubs from 14 February at approximately 16:00 UTC until 15 February at approximately 17:00 UTC.

Referring to the news of 08 February, users are informed that the Ground Segment anomaly has been solved and Sentinel-2A data are nominally available in the data hubs.

Today we are interviewing ESA's Dr Ferran Gascon who is responsible for the quality of the data from the Sentinel-2 mission.

Due to a Ground Segment anomaly, Sentinel-2A data products have not been published in the data hubs since 07 February, at approximately 08:00 UTC sensing time.

The anomaly is expected to be solved today and the data dissemination will resume as soon as possible.

Climate change-driven glacial melt is causing landslides in alpine regions. Data from the Sentinel-1 satellite mission are being inserted into a new cloud computing system to monitor such hazards globally.

A new version of the Sentinel High Level Operations Plan (HLOP) document has been released.
