2. ROUTINE OPERATIONS
- Concerning the routine operations, the schedule is:
* OGDR products, processed by NOAA and EUMETSAT, will switch to new standard on July 31st, 2012.
* IGDR products, processed by CNES, will switch to new standard for the processing of cycle 150 (beginning July 29th, 2012). A delay is foreseen in the delivery of first IGDRs-D on the AVISO ftp due to the installation of new processing chains.
* GDR products are processed by CNES. They will switch to new standard for the processing of cycle 146 (beginning June 19th, 2012).]]> http://www.nodc.noaa.gov/SatelliteData/Jason2/news.html#item020 http://www.nodc.noaa.gov/SatelliteData/Jason2/news.html#item020 29 Mar 2012 00:00:00 -0500 http://www.nodc.noaa.gov/SatelliteData/Jason2/news.html#item019 http://www.nodc.noaa.gov/SatelliteData/Jason2/news.html#item019 27 Mar 2012 00:00:00 -0500 http://www.nodc.noaa.gov/SatelliteData/Jason2/news.html#item018 http://www.nodc.noaa.gov/SatelliteData/Jason2/news.html#item018 17 Jan 2012 00:00:00 -0500 http://www.nodc.noaa.gov/SatelliteData/Jason2/news.html#item017 http://www.nodc.noaa.gov/SatelliteData/Jason2/news.html#item017 05 Dec 2011 00:00:00 -0500 http://www.nodc.noaa.gov/SatelliteData/Jason2/news.html#item016 http://www.nodc.noaa.gov/SatelliteData/Jason2/news.html#item016 01 Aug 2011 00:00:00 -0500 http://www.nodc.noaa.gov/SatelliteData/Jason2/news.html#item015 http://www.nodc.noaa.gov/SatelliteData/Jason2/news.html#item015 01 Jul 2010 00:00:00 -0500 http://www.nodc.noaa.gov/SatelliteData/Jason2/news.html#item014 http://www.nodc.noaa.gov/SatelliteData/Jason2/news.html#item014 04 Mar 2010 00:00:00 -0500 JA2_IP[N,R,S]_2PcP057_197_20100125_233539_20100126_003152

OSTST announcement
******************
Dear OSTST members,
Last week the Jason-2 OGDR near real-time processing software (TM-NRT) was upgraded to version 3.0 at both NOAA and EUMETSAT. This is a major system upgrade from the previous version (2.3), but has minimal impact on users. There are no format changes to the products. TM-NRT-V3 contains a new internal ftp module, provides a common processing package for both Jason-2 and SARAL/Altika, and corrects a few minor anomalies within the OGDR products. The correction of these anomalies is the only difference in data content that end users will observe:
- Several one-byte flags were incorrectly defaulted to 0 vs. 127. They now have a proper _FillValue of 127.
- Four generic processing algorithms didn't properly handle defaults values. These have all been corrected.
- The flag 'alt_state_flag_tracking_mode_20hz' was set to 0, indicating split-gate tracking, when it should have been 1, indicating median tracking mode. The flag is now correctly set to 1 during median tracking.
- The construction of 'net_instr_corr_swh_ku' was incorrect due to a calculation with a wrong bit number. This has been corrected.
- A few netCDF variable attributes (NOT variable names) were misspelled or contained typographical errors that have been corrected:

variable	variable_attribute	change from V2.3 to V3.0
lon	comment	Greenwich spelling corrected
lon_20hz	comment	Greenwich spelling corrected
orb_state_flag_rest	comment	meaning of flag state '8' corrected
model_dry_tropo_corr	standard_name	troposphere spelling corrected
model_wet_tropo_corr	standard_name	troposphere spelling corrected
rad_wet_tropo_corr	standard_name	troposphere spelling corrected
rad_wet_tropo_corr	quality_flag	"and" added before "interp_flag_tb"

None of these changes should necessitate changes to your processing code.
Due to unexpected earth terminal testing at the NOAA/Wallops ground station, a single (short) OGDR was produced with TM-NRT-V3.0 prior to the planned transition on the morning of 14-Jan-2010. This single OGDR is JA2_OPN_2PcS056_139_20100113_200656_20100113_202210.
All OGDRs produced by both NOAA and EUMETSAT after the planned transition are now based on TM-NRT-V3.0. This can be confirmed via the 'references' global netCDF attribute: "L1 library=V3.1p1, L2 library=V3.0p1, Processing Pilot=V3-0p1p2p3".
The last OGDR produced with TM-NRT-V2.3 is:
JA2_OPN_2PcS056_146_20100114_015512_20100114_035302
The first (full) OGDR produced with TM-NRT-V3.0 is:
JA2_OPN_2PcS056_148_20100114_035302_20100114_053835
CNES's offline processing software has been updated this week to the same V3.0 core processing (SPA component) as TM-NRT-V3. The minor anomalies listed above will therefore also be corrected in the V3.0 IGDRs and GDRs.
Operationally, the last IGDR produced with SPA-V2.3 was:
JA2_IPN_2PcP056_226_20100117_044720_20100117_054333
and the first IGDR produced with SPA-V3.0 was:
JA2_IPN_2PcP056_227_20100117_054333_20100117_063946
Today CNES has reprocessed the IGDRs for cycle-056 passes 148 to 245 to be consistent with the OGDR products based on TM-NRT-V3. These V3.0 IGDRs will be available via AVISO and CLASS shortly.
Finally, the GDRs for cycle-052 and beyond will be produced with SPA-V3.0. The latest cycle-051 GDRs were produced with SPA-V2.3, and will be released shortly.
If you have any questions regarding the new version 3.0 OGDR/IGDR/GDRs, please contact one of the Jason-2 Measurement Systems Engineers:

All members of the Ancillary data family (J2-ANC), Orbital Information family (J2-ORBINFO), and Quality Assurance reports (J2-QA) were unrestricted 15 December. Portions of the Auxiliary data family (J2-AUX) and all Jason-2 telemetry data (J2-TEL) will remain restricted. Altimetry data are used for monitoring global sea level rise, ocean currents, tropical cyclone intensification, ocean surface wind speed and wave height (posted on home page 01/2009).]]> http://www.nodc.noaa.gov/SatelliteData/Jason2/news.html#item002 http://www.nodc.noaa.gov/SatelliteData/Jason2/news.html#item002 12 Jan 2009 00:00:00 -0500 JA2_OPN_2PcS019_024_20090107_103349_20090107_122806
