Subject: Product Outage/Delay : MODIS  Data , Issued July 7, 2015
Topic:	MODIS data outage/delay

Date/Time Issued: July 07, 2015  1605  UTC

Product(s) or Data Impacted: All MODIS products

Date/Time of Initial Impact: July 06, 2015  15:00 UTC

Date/Time of Expected End:  July 07, 13:30 UTC

Duration:  22.5 hours

Details/Specifics of Change: The MODIS data processing system
unexpectedly ceased production yesterday (July 6th) when a series
of bad
input datasets locked the production queues. The problem has been
investigated and cleared and full production was resumed this morning
(July 7th).  Approximately 200 MODIS data granules are currently
backlogged and are scheduled to be processed as capacity allows.  As
always, level 1b files are given highest priority, and backlog
processing procedures from most recent to oldest.  We expect the level
1b backlog to be caught up within the next four hours. Level 2 backlog
processing may take the remainder of the day.
