Product Release Schedule

Release date of JAXA standard products

JAXA standard products and ESA products are planned to be released in the following three phases.

6 months after launch: All Level 1b products
9 months after launch: All Level 2a products and Level 2b CPR-ATLID synergy cloud products
18 months Level 2b CPR-ATLID-MSI synergy cloud product and 4-sensor synergy radiation budget product

The reason why products are released a little later after the satellite launch is that we have a early validation period to confirm the accuracy of the products.

The figure below shows which standard product is scheduled to be released when.
