    • Implies it is archived into storage

    • We do not get archived from BOS, as it only tells us acquisitions, not SLC data files

  • Acquired

    • Only states that the SLC has been acquired. We don’t know where it is archived if it is archived yet

  • Predicted

    • Based on repeat orbit of prior acquisitions

  • Planned

    • Some agencies published their planned acquisitions

    • ESA publishes planned 2-weeks ahead time
