Update #1: This is the 2 week reminder for the Scheduled termination of Blended-Hydro HDFEOS data files on October 16, 2020.

 


Topic: Scheduled termination of Blended-Hydro HDFEOS data files

 

Date/Time Issued: October 15, 2020 1635 UTC

 

Product(s) or Data Impacted:  The Blended-TPW, Blended-RR and TPW Anomaly products in HDFEOS format

 

Date/Time of Initial Impact: October 19, 2020 1500 UTC

 

Impacts on Users and Significance: Users will need to switch to use the products files in netCDF4 format

 

Details/Specifics of Change:

 

The Blended-Hydro products have been made available in netCDF4 format since March 2019, and NESDIS has communicated and coordinated with users to transition from HDFEOS to netCDF4. Given that most users have switched to use the netCDF4 files, NESDIS will terminate the HDFEOS files on October 19, 2020.
