This data family contains global Level-2 (L2) data products from the Ku-band Scatterometer (OSCAT-3). The data products include the L2A Normalized Radar Cross Section at 12.5 km and 25 km resolution, and L2B Ocean Surface Wind Vectors at 12.5 km and 25 km resolution at sea level. The L2 data products were developed by the NESDIS Center for Satellite Applications and Research (STAR) Ocean Surface Winds Team (OSWT) and are produced by the NESDIS Office of Satellite and Product Operations (OSPO). onGoing historicalArchive DOC/NOAA/NESDIS/NCEI > National Centers for Environmental Information, NESDIS, NOAA, U.S. Department of Commerce Customer Engagement Branch 1-828-271-4800 1-828-271-4876 151 Patton Avenue Veach-Baley Federal Building, Room 468 Asheville NC 28801-5001 USA class.help@noaa.gov https://www.ncei.noaa.gov HTTPS Web Browser NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI) NCEI home page with information, data access and contact information. information 8:00 - 6:00 Eastern pointOfContact Continual See Product Details Link theme Global Ocean place 12.5 km, 25 km dataResolution Oceansat-3 (EOS-6) platform OSCAT > OceanSat Scatterometer instrument Level 2a, Level 2b product NOAA / NESDIS / NCEI NOAA / NESDIS / OSPO dataCentre otherRestrictions Distribution liability: NOAA and NCEI make no warranty, expressed or implied, regarding these data, nor does the fact of distribution constitute such a warranty.
