Degraded SWOT Data Quality

Data Update
Issued
Aug. 14, 2024
Resolved

The following message has been forwarded to all registered Physical Oceanography Distributed Active Archive Center (PO.DAAC) users on behalf of the Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) Project Team.


Dear SWOT data users,

The quality of SWOT products (PIC0) from July 31 to August 7 was impacted by late arriving telemetry.

Ka-band Radar Interferometer (KaRIn) LR products for this period have been reprocessed. Please use products with the highest product counter.

KaRIn HR products for this period currently have lower coverage for this period and degraded crossover calibrations. We will attempt to reprocess the affected HR products from this period at a later date.

We apologize for any inconvenience.

Best Regards,

Nicolas Picot and Shailen Desai
