Sentinel 2A: Geometric accuracy off by nearly 50 m

@reimari Hello, The product you have flagged (from S2A Absolute orbit 6011 of the 16th of August, 2016) is identified as having a Geolocation Error in ‘Table 3-2: Anomalies not related to processing’ in the Data Quality Report. The issue arose as a consequence of a unnanounced Collision Avoidance Manœuvre. Geolocation in affected products (Orbits 6003 - 6011)is in the region of 45 - 120 metres. Cheers Jan S2 MPC Operations Manager.

Sentinel 2 Geometric Accuracy

The Sentinel-2 geometric calibration team is still actively working on the preparation of the geometric refinement. The prototype processor has demonstrated long ago the efficiency of the geometric refinement for Sentinel-2 images. However the transfer to operations has proved more difficult than anticipated. First, the verification of the Global Reference Image (4 TB of data and millions of files) has taken more time than anticipated. Second, we had to rework the processing algorithm to make it…
