Topic: Jason-3 maneuver December 18, 2018

Product(s) or Data Impacted: Jason-3 Operational Geophysical Data Records (OGDRs)

Date/Time of Initial Impact: December 18, 2017 17:59:07 Z

Date/Time of Expected End: TBD

Length of Event: Any impact to products would be 30 minutes before and up to 2 hours following the maneuver.

Details/Specifics of Change: A Jason-3 maneuver is scheduled for 18-December-2018 starting at 17:59:07 Z. There will be an expected change of 9.38 m in the semi-major axis possibly resulting in large radial orbit errors in the OGDRs. Over any ocean points, this will affect the sea surface height, but not the wind and wave content in the products.
