Hello. I was interested to know if there is a public document or online resource with estimates on number of objects/observations and footprints (under whatever assumptions) for DP2 and DR1.
Thanks.

Reference for DP2: https://sitcomtn-005.lsst.io/
There is a simulation file Enhanced Baseline Science Validation Surveys Design for Start of Pilot Observations - #6 by ljones
This code defines the footprint
https://github.com/lsst-ts/ts_fbs_utils/blob/develop/python/lsst/ts/fbs/utils/maintel/sv_config.py
However, was especially interested in DR1 prospects too.
Not a direct answer to your question, but this thread is somewhat related and might be helpful: Depths for DR1 and more - Support / Data Products - Rubin Observatory LSST Community forum.
Also, this ancient (2013!) document refers to DR1 being expected to contain “23.09 billion objects”, but it doesn’t specify where this number comes from (it is appropriately less than the 37B predicted for DR11): DMTN-048: Qserv design prototyping experiments.
