Saral validation report, cycle 173
Cycle date | 2023-07-03 - 2023-08-07 |
---|---|
Cycle quality | During this cycle mispointing levels are quite low and slightly impact data quality. These levels of mispoint- ing 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 3.76% of the data is rejected during the validation process by thresholds, leading to an overall percentage of 21.21% of rejected data once all criteria applied. |
Missing data | Cycle 173 has no missing pass. |
