1. INTRODUCTION

1.1. Scope

This document describes the data flow configuration within the Copernicus Ground Segment, identifying the Sentinel products and auxiliary data files managed by each Ground Segment Service and indicating for each type of data managed by a given Service, whether the Service acts as a Provider (P) or as a Consumer (C) of the data.

Possible changes in the operational data flow configuration will be reflected in future updates of this document.

1.4. Definitions and Notes

Originating Provider (P0): refers to the source, i.e. originating entity / GS element

Provider (P): refers to the provider / GS element

Consumer (C): refers to the consuming or receiving entity / GS element

In some cases, consumers can also be providers (e.g. LTA providing data for reprocessing purposes; MPC fetching data from the Data Access service) and providers can also be consumers (e.g. Production services). To indicate the originating GS service for the Consumers, the letter C is followed by the GS service from which the Consumer will pick-up the data. These abbreviations are described in section 0.

Additional Notes:

  • SM, IW and WV GRDM products are currently not produced as part of the CSC operations baseline.

¹ Note: for SM (Strip-Map) mode the product type code S[1…6]_<type> means that there are six different codes one per each number (e.g.: S[1…6]_RAW_0S → S1_RAW_0S, S2_RAW_0S, S3_RAW_0S, S4_RAW_0S, S5_RAW_0S and S6_RAW_0S)

² Note: For product type codes with 2, the 2 corresponds to DH or DV or SH or SV (e.g. IW_RAW_0SDH, IW_RAW_0SSV). Only products matching the product type code followed by DH or DV or SH or SV are relevant. For product type codes without 2, all products matching the product type code are relevant.

Additional Notes:

  • Some files are currently not part of the operational baseline. They are expected to become operational in the future and are included for completeness.

  • Since the decommissioning of EDS interface on the 25/09/2024, the MP files are nominally delivered by the MP IP interface.

2.4. Sentinel-1 OLQC Reports

Additional Notes:

  • The list of product types originating from FOS is not exhaustive. Files originating from FOS and used only for Mission Planning purposes are not included here.

⁷ These files will be provided by the Reprocessing Preparation Package to the LTA and other GS Services via ad-hoc means in preparation of the Sentinel-2 reprocessing campaign.

⁸ Archived manually ad-hoc, as a one-off. Where: XXX = Relative Orbit (001-143).
