Data Processing and Distribution status as of 31-DeC-2020

Total number of Planned Observations in Routine Phase (revs 0103-3857) 14148
Total number of Performed Observations in Routine Phase 13699
Total number of Observation Data Files generated 13505
Total number of Pipeline/Data Products sets generated and distributed 13458

 

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
