Here, we explain how to prepare your dataset for this project.
-
Select the time period that you would like to share with us.
- If your simulation includes the year 2024, please include it.
- Otherwise, it would be best to select a neutral year (i.e. a year without extreme events).
- IMPORTANT: If you contribute with more than 1 year, please prepared one dataset for each year
-
Interpolate your simulation outputs onto SWOT grid, using Synthocean.
- When interpolating the SWOT grid, if the year 2024 is not available, assume that the selected year corresponds to 2024 (using the dates closest to SWOT)
-
Please organize the files into separate folders for each cycle. Each folder should be named using cycle_XXX format, where XXX represents the three-digit cycle number (e.g., cycle_008, cycle_012).
Note
We expect to have a specific directory format and naming convention for each model output:
MODELNAME/cycle_(cyclenumber)/MODELNAME_GRID_L3_LR_SSH_(cyclenumber)_(passnumber)_(STARTDATE)_(ENDDATE)_v1.0.2.nc
(which is the same SWOT files format)
- Share your model data interpolated on SWOT grid through a S3 endpoint.
