A routine decontamination activity of the Sentinel-2A MSI is planned over a continuous period of approximately 24-hours between 17:40 07/07/2017 and 17:00 08/07/2017 UTC.

Referring to the news of 12 June, we are pleased to inform you that the backlog of Sentinel-2A data dissemination is recovered and all products acquired between 10 and 12 June are now available in the data hubs for download.

From 29 June 2017, Sentinel-2A Level-2A products are available on the Copernicus Services Data Hub.

While a fire at a rubbish depot was detected from space by the Copernicus Sentinel-3A and ESA's Proba-V satellites, pollutants in the plume of thick smoke were measured by instruments that will be used to validate information from the upcoming Sentinel-5 Precursor mission.

Identifying landslides rapidly and precisely enables a better understanding of landslide triggering conditions. The Copernicus Sentinel-1 and -2 missions can be used to provide such information in a timely fashion, and this can help improve maps that show which areas are susceptible to landslides, therefore contributing to risk management.

Due to a SRAL Digital Elevation Mode EEPROM patching operations, SRAL mission data was unavailable during the following period:

22 June 2017 from 08:48:42 to 08:54:08 (Duration 00:05:26).

Sentinel-1A was unavailable on 21 June 2017 between 14:09 UTC and 17:35 UTC, due to PDHT anomaly. No data were generated during this period, and the recovery of some data acquired slightly earlier than this period may have been affected.

A low Earth-orbiting satellite, the Copernicus Sentinel-5 Precursor (Sentinel-5P) mission is dedicated to monitoring the composition of the atmosphere. Its data will be used largely by the Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service. The mission will deliver information to monitor air quality, stratospheric ozone and will also be used for climate variables monitoring, and support European policy-making.

Sentinel-1A was unavailable on 16 June 2017 between 09:09 UTC and 12:31 UTC due to a SAR anomaly, and on 17 June 2017 between 11:43 UTC and 14:43 UTC, for a similar anomaly.

Due to a SRAL DEM EEPROM patching operations, SRAL mission data will be unavailable during the following estimated period (the effective unavailability period will be reported after the operation):

  •  on 22 June 2017 from 08:50 UTC to 09:00 UTC.
