Cycle date | 2005-09-23 - 2005-10-03 |
---|---|
Cycle quality | Data quality for this cycle is nominal. |
Missing data | Due to a platform incident, passes 1 to 91 are missing and pass 92 is partly missing with 11.75% of missing measurements. A wrong quaternion was used in SCAO loop on 2th October, 8:34 leading to high off-nadir values (several degrees) and therefore to altimeter lost of tracking. In consequence, pass 196 is partly missing with 94.44% of missing measurements. |
