Sentinel-2: S2A Nighttime Campaign on 23 July 2026

A second S2A nighttime campaign is planned to start on 23rd of July and last for 20 days. The applicable mission planning should be sent the 20th or 21st of July.

All acquisitions will be performed in INS-RAW mode, The production service should not generate L2A product level for INS-RAW acquisitions from 23rd of July throughout the end of September.

The nighttime acquisitions should be published for L1B and L1C only to expert users.

The S2A expected data volume during that period should not be impacted. The data rolling policy should also be extended for S2A INS-RAW for future publication to end users.

Kind regards,
