Website Changelog

• 17/03/2025
  • • Added RCM data.
  • • Available data is now produced using grdwindinversion version 0.3.5. Concatenation processor also changed (version 1.4.0) to crop borders and improve slice grouping. Produced data now contains additional variables as well as additional attributes (owi package version 1.0.10).
  • • Added navigation menu, and per-coloc statistics in satellite co-location archive.
• 11/02/2025
  • • Improved statistics plots (N total count, colors for accessibility)
• 14/01/2025
  • • Website and database rework to use XSAR-derived data (instead of previous sarwing processor). This include slight changes in product format and also data values. Products are still in netCDF format with self-explanatory variable conventions. A documentation of the new product will be available soon.
  • • Processors versions for website SAR data: xsar: 2024.12.03, xsarsea: 1.8.1, grdwindinversion: 0.3.3
  • • Fix issue in SFMR colocation, which was preventing all colocations from being generated.
  • • Use new coloc_sat package to generate SAR/SAR and SAR/Radiometers colocations
  • • Added a link to the Syntool visualization web portal.
  • • Removed L-band radiometers acquisitions from visualizations and observation statistics. They are still used for comparisons with CyclObs SAR winds.
  • • Missing generation of SAR fixes. This may be re-added in the future.
• 27/03/2023
  • • Improved TCVA archive form to be more user friendly and dynamic
  • • Added TCVA statistic webpage
• 16/01/2023
  • • Using new version (0.21.0 -> 1.0.0) of TC center analysis product, which includes:
    • • Switching from shared versioning between algorithm and product, to separated versioning This means that NETCDF products now contains a Product Version and an Algorithm Version
    • • Algorithm : updated algorithm for VMAX, RMAX and RADII detection Check TCVA documentation to learn more about the changes.
    • • Product : new fields in NETCDF product. Check TCVA documentation to learn more
  • • Added visualization of ATCF and IBTrACS (USA source) radii on TCVA product visualization page
  • • Added "SAR-derived center quality flag" column in TCVA archive table
  • • Added SAR-derived center quality flag, analysis vmax and rmax to TCVA product visualization page
  • • Added new columns in "Get Data" API results, see API changelogs for more details
