                <gco:CharacterString>Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) Level 2 Products (SAR_L2) - The Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) Level 2 Products are operational products derived from the Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) instrument onboard the Sentinel-1A, Sentinel-1C, Sentinel-1D, RadarSat-2, RCM1, RCM2, and RCM3 satellites, which is an active remote sensing instrument used for reconstructing Earth's landscapes and other objects. This data family contains level 2 tropical cyclone winds that cover the global tropical regions at 500 m resolution, and is an event-based product. These SAR tropical cyclone winds products are made available in netCDF and GeoTIFF formats. These data are produced by the NESDIS Office of Satellite and Product Operations (OSPO).</gco:CharacterString>
