Sentinel-2 Level2A products distribution schedule

First Sentinel-2 Level 2A images (ortho-rectified corrected from atmospheric effects and provided with a cloud and cloud shadow mask) will be producted and distributed in September 2016.

The transfer to the operational teams is starting this summer period and the project team is using this delay to integrate the most recent version of MACCS, which enhances the detection of cloud shadows.

After the operational qualification, the MUSCATE production will start in September 2016 with France from data acquired in December 2015, and extend as quickly as possible the regions to process to Europe and Africa.
