Is it possible to shorten the delay time for a product to come through the station?

For example VCI dekads arrive too late.

The drought products originate from SANSA, and they normally reach us after the 6th day following the end of the dekad, sometimes much later. Dissemination occurs on the evening of the day of arrival of the products.

We are in communication with SANSA on ways to reduce the delay. We shall keep you posted

Thank you for the question

Ok,

 

and is it also possible that you could put the long-term stats (e.g. long-term avg-, min- and max NDVI)  that SANSA is using for their calculation of e.g. VCI on the ftp-site?

The Drought Monitoring Software will be released soon, before the Regional Training. We have received the beta version for testing.

The software is used to generate the drought products (incl long-term stats), hence soon we will be generating the products ourselves and the timing of dissemination will be in our control.

Drought service users will also receive a copy of the software and they will be able to generate the products themselves.
