Some examples of Jupyter notebooks are given below. A complete description of tools and variables used are described in the  SWIM Products Simplified Handbook. All the examples below are grouped in a zip file for easier downloading.

The wave spectra parameters are given by box (SWIM Quick Handbook). The spatial distribution of these boxes is reminded on the figure below.
In one L2 Product file there are n_box * n_posneg wave spectra.

The parameters for wave spectra can be divided in three parts:
- The Omni-directional spectra,
- The 2D directional wave spectra,
- Their associated wave parameters and partitions.

These parameters are computed based on measurements performed with the 6°, 8° and 10° beams, which are called the spectral beams.

Omnidirectional wave slope spectra

For each box omnidirectional spectra are given as a function of the wave number

2D wave spectra

The wave spectra are given through a polar representation wave spectra = f(wavenumber,azimuth): In one box, each sample value of spectra is given for one wavenumber and one azimuth.

Wave parameters

Definitions: 
3 wave parameters are given for each box: 
-    The Significant Wave Height given, in meter
-    The dominant wavelength given, in meter
-    The dominant direction given in the meteorological convention with a 180° ambiguity (0°= from or towards North or from South, 90°= from or toward East or from West, 180°= from or towards South, 270°= from or towards west
