Hello,
https://oceandata.sci.gsfc.nasa.gov/directdataaccess/Level-1B/S3A-OLCI/2022/141/
I found in that directory; NR files came 3 days after NT files. My understanding is NT shall come after NR, and their sampling timestamp in filenames shall be the same. But you can see 5 seconds difference between the following two.
S3A_OL_1_EFR____20220521T003112_20220521T003412_20220525T135459_0179_085_273_2700_MAR_O_NR_002.zip 2022-05-25 14:26:37 596948088

For this case, NR and NT, which is the mostly updated? Please advise.
Best regards!

Re: S3A-OLCI NR came after NT
The NT data are the refined stream.
It isn't clear to me why ESA would reprocess a Near Real Time granule 4 days after real time.
They may have been testing something internally and published it by mistake.
I would ignore the NR granule.
