Subject: | yearly-RSS-interruption
Impact: | data-unavailable
Detail: | Yearly interruption. Meteosat-10 Rapid Scanning Service (RSS) will be suspended for scheduled Full Earth Scanning and Ground Segment Maintenance. Meteosat-9 RSS image data, rectified to 9.5 deg E, replaces the Meteosat-10 service. The RSS meteorological product service is not available during this timeframe. An outage of 5 minutes can be expected when switching to and from Meteosat-9. Note: During this one-month period, Meteosat-9 will be the back-up spacecraft for Meteosat-11 0-degree service. So in the event of a Meteosat-11 anomaly, Meteosat-9 RSS gap-filling mission will stop and no RSS data will be available.
