The Ifremer Wind and Wave Operation Center (IWWOC) runs daily the WaveWatch III (WW3) model to provide surface wave colocations with both SCAT and SWIM instruments onboard CFOSAT. CFOSAT (Chinese French Ocean SATellite) is a french-chinese mission launched in 2018, whose aim is to provide wind (SCAT instrument) and wave (SWIM instrument) measurements over the sea surface. Directional wave spectra are calculated over SWIM sensing geometries over each measurement, thanks to the dedicated toolbox (WAVERUN) which was developed by IFREMER for the colocation of WW3 and satellite remote sensing products. The current Ifremer WW3 run is global, hourly and at 0.25° spatial resolution. Two different colocation product are generated: - WW3 with CWWIC L2 provides WW3 directional spectra over the CWWIC SWIM L2 geometry, meaning a colocated valid is provided for each box defined in CWWIC L2 product. - WW3 with IWWOC L2S provides a WW3 directional spectra over IWWOC SWI_L2S__ product. For each of these products, a colocation product is provided respetively for each input file from CWWIC SWI_L2___ and IWWOC SWI_L2S (for each incidence in the later one). It contains the modelled spectral density and all forcing fields: current, wind, friction velocity, air sea temperature difference. Other parameters can be added in the future. The SWIM and WW3 colocation product is generated and distributed by Ifremer / CERSAT in the frame of the Ifremer Wind and Wave Operation Center (IWWOC) co-funded by Ifremer and CNES and dedicated to the processing of the delayed mode data of CFOSAT mission. Note: colocations with SCAT instrument onboard CFOSAT are also within the SWISCA L2S product also available at IWWOC. It provides WW3 directional spectra over SCAT L2A geometry, meaning a model value is calculated for each Wind Vector Cell (WVC) of L2A/L2B types of SCAT product.

The SWISCA Level 2S (L2S) product provides along-track colocation of SWIM wave measuring instrument onto SCAT scatterometer grid, over the global ocean. SWIM and SCAT are both instruments onboard CFOSAT. CFOSAT (Chinese French Ocean SATellite) is a french-chinese mission launched in 2018, whose aim is to provide wind (SCAT instrument) and wave (SWIM instrument) measurements over the sea surface. The SWISCA L2S product is broken down into three different subproducts: - L2A containing the sigma0 of both SWIM and SCAT - L2B containing the wave parameters measured by SWIM and wind vectors measured by SCAT - AUX containing additional ancillary fields such as sea ice concentration (from CERSAT/SSMI), ocean currents (from CMEMS/GlobCurrent), SST and Wind (from ECMWF), rain rate (from IMERG), and WaveWatch3 wave spectra. All SWIM and ancillary observations are resampled onto SCAT scatterometer's geometry (wind vector cells, WVC). The SWISCA level 2S product is generated in delayed mode, a few days after acquisition. It is intended to foster cross analysis of SWIM and SCAT observations, and their combination to improve the retrieval of both wind and wave parameters. The SWISCA L2S product is generated and distributed by Ifremer / CERSAT in the frame of the Ifremer Wind and Wave Operation Center (IWWOC) co-funded by Ifremer and CNES and dedicated to the processing of the delayed mode data of CFOSAT mission.
