Data From Newest Ocean Satellite Ready for Their 'Close-up'
This story is from the category Libraries and Components
Date posted: 07/08/2009
Following a year of calibration and validation by an international team of scientists, fully-validated, research-quality sea surface height data from the NASA/French Space Agency Ocean Surface Topography Mission/Jason-2 satellite are now available to the public. These "geophysical data record" products, as they are known, will be used primarily by climate researchers for climate monitoring and modeling.
These data are the most accurate of the three global OSTM/Jason-2 data products available to users worldwide. They are available within 60 days of being recorded, and are distributed jointly by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and France's Centre National d'Etudes Spatiales.
