#STEREO, #PROBA-V

Published on 17 January 2017

In order to further improve the PROBA-V datasets, a full reprocessing of the PROBA-V archive was launched during the summer of 2016. This new collection is named “Collection 1” or in short “C1”.

Changes in the C1 collection are:

Updated cloud detection algorithm;

  • Updates on radiometric calibration parameters;
  • Release L2A products;
  • Meta data compliancy to Climate and Forecasting conventions (v1.6).

On December 5, 2016, VITO switched the near-real-time processing to the new cloud detection algorithm. At the same time, a first set of reprocessed data (starting in Oct 2013) was made available.
