Data Processing and Distribution status as of 30-SEP-2021

Total number of Planned Observations in Routine Phase (revs 0103-3993) 14619
Total number of Performed Observations in Routine Phase 14130
Total number of Observation Data Files generated 13936
Total number of Pipeline/Data Products sets generated and distributed 13889

 

Turnaround (in days) between Data acquisition and final Data Products distribution (last Quarter)
Values in excess of 90 days usually indicate a problem analysing the data and/or that re-processing was required.
Data Delay
