METIS-FRP NRT S3, the Fire Radiative Power component of Monitoring & Evaluation of Thematic Information from Space (METIS), provides near-real time diagnostics of the Copernicus Near Real time (NRT) Sentinel-3 FRP product procured by EUMETSAT.

Current Satellite NRT Sentinel-3 FRP Products monitored in METIS-FRP NRT S3 are from: Sentinel-3 SLSTR-A and -B.

Further details on this product are described on the EUMETSAT Operational Algorithm Web page - Copernicus Sentinel-3 NRT Fire Radiative Power (FRP) Radiant heating & threat monitoring of fires, gas flares, and volcanoes

All analyses are stratified into 18 Regions of interest (ROI).

A series of additional S3 FRP dataset produced off-line from the same EUMETSAT processor can be made available upon request. This includes not only the complete worldwide reprocessing of past S3 FRP dataset from 1st of December 2019 to up-to-date based on the reference NRT configuration, Baseline Collection 1 Processor v2.0, and alternative ones (under evaluation). More details available on the EUMETSAT NRT Sentinel-3 Atmospheric Composition Webpage.
