Saral validation report, cycle 160
Cycle date | 2022-04-04 - 2022-05-09 |
---|---|
Cycle quality | During this cycle, mispointing levels are slightly higher than during the previous cycle. These levels of mispointing are due to attitude deviation, and explains the higher percentage of rejected data during the validation process. Data quality is still slightly impacted by these events, so that around 3.21% of the data is rejected during the validation process mainly due to mispointing (see section ). |
