Jason-3 Telemetry data, 2015-present (NCEI Accession 0122599)

These data consist of raw Level-0 telemetry data from the Jason-3 spacecraft. There are three datatypes available: Housekeeping Telemetry - Recorded (HKTM-R) is stored on the spacecraft for later downlink; Payload Telemetry 1 (PLTM-1) is the payload science data from the core-mission payloads: Poseidon, DORIS, AMR, and GPSP; and Payload Telemetry 2 (PLTM-2) is the payload science data from the passenger mission of opportunity payloads. They are available as CCSDS packet files.

These data may be subject to access restrictions.
