[Datastream #IOP-731443]: 20210416: L2 Volcanic Ash Products

Hi Carol,

I seem to recall that the distribution of the Volcanic Ash product in
NOAAPort was discontinued.  The last of these products that we received
was at 14:23:39 UTC on September 22.

The NOAA PDA should have this product if it is still being created.

re:
> I'm specifically looking for data from April 12 or 13, 2021.

The SSEC Data Center was and probably still is grabbing all of the 
GOES-R L2 products from the PDA, so they might have the image(s)
you are looking for.

Just so you know:

We have been told that some fraction of the GOES-16 L2 products that
have been distributed in NOAAPort may be removed from NOAAPort.  The
explanation was that:

- NOAAPort is out of bandwidth, and all products are being reviewed
  to see what can be removed from the SBN to free up bandwidth

  This includes, but is not limited to the GOES-16 L2 products.  It
  may also come to pass that not all GOES-16/17 bands will be sent
  in NOAAPort, and the FullDisk scans might be limited to the
  Northern Hemisphere portion of the scans.

- the GOES-R/S L2 products were never intended to be distributed in
  NOAAPort

  They were added to the SBN to showcase them and promote their
  use.

The bandwidth situation in NOAAPort is critical, so  it is likely that
lots of products will be removed to free up bandwidth for products that
can't be sent currently.

Sorry we couldn't be of more help...

Cheers,

Tom
