Updated CryoSat-2 magnetometer data now available on Swarm dissemination server

21 Aug 2024

An improved version of the CryoSat-2 magnetic field data with baseline 0303 is now available on the Swarm Dissemination Server.

The new dataset is stored under the /Multimission/CryoSat-2/ folder and covers the time period from August 2010 to April 2024.

The previous baseline, i.e., version 0201, is still available on the dissemination server at the following path: /Multimission/CryoSat-2/Older_baseline

This latest release contains many processing changes, including the use of improved positions (instead of the onboard position solution), a time shift of magnetometer data by 0.6 sec (optimal value obtained from scalar calibration) and improved attitude processing.
