SARAL : Level2 IGDRs products generated on CNES side
Category: News of the Saral mission
CNES has started to generate the level2 SARAL IGDRs products - this is another important milestone in the ongoing SARAL commissioning activities
The IGDRs generated by CNES within its multi-mission altimetry data processing, SALP, are delivered to the scientific team for further analysis. Compared to the OGDRs products, the IGDRs include the instrumental level1B parameters (altimeter waveforms, radiometer brightness temperatures). Those parameters are very important to analyse the Ka band geophysical values over all surfaces.
