Abstract:
Since the launch of Topex/Poseidon, more than 24 years ago, satellite altimetry has evolved in parallel with the user community and oceanography. As a result of this evolution, we now have:
- A bigger choice of products, more and more easy-to-use, spanning complete GDRs to pre-computed sea level anomalies and gridded datasets and indicators such as MSL index or ENSO index.
- a mature approach, combining altimetric data from various satellites and merging data acquired using different observation techniques, including altimetry, to give us a global view of the ocean;
Different services are available either to choose between the various datasets, or to download, extract or even visualize the data. 2015 - 2016 saw several changes which will be detailed in the poster. In the future, we will develop even more the ice, coastal and hydrology thematics on the web.
