    EUMETSAT have issued updated IASI config files for Metop-A, and plan to install them into their ground system on 7th April. It is recommended that Direct Broadcast users install them also, though it is not necessary to do it on the same date. The files are:

    IASI_GRD_xx_M02_20200310000000Z_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxZ_20200309082652Z_IAST_0000000034
    IASI_BRD_xx_M02_20200310000000Z_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxZ_20200309082644Z_IAST_0000000017

    You can find them in the usual place at ftp://ftp.eumetsat.int/pub/NWPSAF/aapp_data_files/OPS-LRS/aux_data/.

    As a reminder, the easiest way to install the latest files is to download and run the get_aux_files.sh script, which can be found in the same directory on the ftp site.

    The purpose is to update the scan mirror reflectivity coefficients and IIS-AVHRR co-registration. No impacts on the data are expected.
