After SMOS in 2009, and VENµS in 2017, the CESBIO Laboratory is very proud to see its third proposed mission, Biomass, reach orbit. As always, it has been a long journey from the idea, at the beginning of the century, to the selection in 2013 as the seventh Earth Explorer Mission by ESA, to the […]
How did I miss the blog animated by Remi Cresson, from « la maison de la télédétection » in Montpellier (House of Remote Sensing) ? It is well written, very funny and above all it shows impressive results from our favourite optical satellites, exactly what I intended to do in multitemp blog when I had time to […]
Good news, MUSCATE is back to nominal production !The source of the issue (archiving the produced data) is not solved yet, but it has been mitigated to allow to come back to real time production. A big thanks to the exploitation team and to the CNES computing center who gave us extra disk space to […]
Following the installation of MUSCATE version 2.5, the production has resumed, but very slowly. It seems to be hampered by the archiving of data, which takes too much time. This causes traffic jams in the scheduler, an the team has no other solution right now than reducing the throughput of MUSCATE.We hope to solve this […]
=>MUSCATE est en grande forme ces jours-ci, grâce aux efforts de l’équipe de développement (CNES et CAP GEMINI), qui ont résolu de nombreux problèmes récemment. Le compteur des produits de niveau 2A de Sentinel-2 vient de dépasser 70 000, juste un mois après avoir passé 60 000. Si on fait la somme de tous les […]
=> The research to improve the performances of our MAJA atmospheric correction processor relies on a very small team within CESBIO, with two persons, Bastien Rouquié, who is working at improving aerosol retrievals, and myself, who spend most of the time in meetings, or writing blog posts, and sometimes doing both simultaneously ;). This is […]
It seems that the upload of data to MUSCATE distribution server is quite slow these days. This results in a delay in the provision of data. As CNES is closed between Christmas and the new year, we will have to wait a little to have it repaired. We are sorry for that inconvenience. But you […]
Le satellite Franco-Israelien Venµs, attendu depuis si longtemps, a été lancé le 2 août 2017. 110 sites dans le monde vont être observés en 2018 et 2019 à 10 m de résolution et avec 12 bandes spectrales. Alors que la plupart des sites ne correspondent qu’à l’emprise d’une scène Venµs (27 à 32 km de […]
From Scihub news : Referring to the news of 11 August , users are informed that the contingency issue occurred at Matera has been solved and nominal Sentinel-2A/B production was restarted yesterday 16 August in the early afternoon.An inventory of the missing production is being consolidated and all impacted S2A/B L1C products will be recovered […]
