Quality Data quality appear good with data loss when heavier seas rotated the sensor mounting pole. In these cases, the data will be removed from the issued dataset.

Visible radiometers measured in daylight at a temporal resolution of the order of milli-seconds, corresponding to spatial resolution on the order of metres or less.

Access Constraints These data are not yet publicly available, pending processing and quality control. These data are currently stored on a series of DVDs.
