The Suomi National Polar-orbiting Partnership (Suomi NPP) products, including Physical Oceanography Distributed Active Archive Center (PO.DAAC) Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) Sea Surface Temperature (SST) datasets, have been temporarily stopped due to a satellite anomaly starting at 01:56:11 UTC on July 26, 2023. Currently, the satellite is in non-nominal state and the length of outage remains unclear. Unfortunately, all missing data will not be recoverable.
Delivery of Suomi National Polar-orbiting Partnership (Suomi NPP) satellite data products will cease on November 1, 2026. Data users should transition now to alternative products from NOAA-21 and NOAA-20.
