Detail: Maintenance upgrade of the NRT processing system at ROM SAF. The data quality will not change, but the reference azimuth angle (descriptor 0 05 021 in BUFR, Data Field 36) will be the one provided by EUMETSAT instead of the one computed at the ROM SAF. Additionaly, the 1Dvar solution for occultations that fail the 1Dvar qualitiy check will then also be available, but with a quality flag (descriptor 0 33 039 in BUFR, bit 7) indicating that 'Meteorological processing' was non-nominal. [Rev 2]: This upgrade has been postponed by ROM-SAF. ROM-SAF is appreciating user feedback on this upgrade until Thursday 25/02/2016. [Rev 3]: Rescheduled from 22/02/2015 to 29/02/2015. A short delay in data delivery can be expected during the upgrade.
