SPOT5 (TAKE5) data production schedule

In English SPOT5(Take5) THEIA

Olivier Hagolle, 22 avril 2015

The processing of SPOT5 (Take5) data is based on a prototype ground segment and involves prototype processors, and we have lots of configuration data to produce for each of the 150 sites. Moreover,  to reduce exploitation costs, the processing at Airbus DS for Level 1A, and then at CNES (L1C and L2A) are launched only once a week. And finally the production of level 2A  based on multi-temporal algorithms requires an initialization with one month of data. We also need to set the new distribution server up. That’s why we need two months after the first acquisitions to start distributing the data, which means that the data should be released before end of June (with some margins). After this initialization period, we should be able to deliver the data on the website 3 weeks after their acquisition. Given the amount of work needed to do that, delays are possible.

Copernicus should keep S2A operational after S2C launch

The launch of Sentinel-2C (S2C) is scheduled on the 4th of September 2024, next week ! After 3 months of commissioning phase, S2C will replace S2A, to fulfill the Sentinel-2 mission together with S2B. S2B will later be replaced by S2D. The current plans are to keep S2A as a redundant satellite, in case something […]
