This poster was presented at the ESA Living Planet Symposium 2019 (LPS19) in Milano (Italy). We give a status of the coordinated contributions from EUMETSAT OSI SAF and ESA CCI to the Sea Ice Concentration ECV. Existing data records are presented, as well as some visualization of recent sea-ice trends. Plans for the period 2019-2022 are outlined (further developments of algorithms, and future data records).
