Description

@remkos

GSFC Std2400 orbits for Jason-1,2,3, TOPEX, and Sentinel-6A were produced earlier in 2025 in SP3 format.

These have now (30 Sep 2025) been partially augmented, partially replaced by an updated version and been provided through CDDIS.

The following changes were made to the orbits:

  • Version number in the file names updated from 02 to 20.
  • Change in the file header.
  • There is no change in the actual data content between version 02 and 20.
  • An additional version 21 was produced as well.

Specifically per satellite:

  • Sentinel-6A: All new orbits and extension to 2025-06-01 (Cycle 168)
  • Jason-3: New orbits since 2020-12-17 and extension to 2025-06-02 (Cycles 178-513)
  • Jason-2: Additional orbits after 2016-10-13 to end of mission (Cycle 315-383)
  • Jason-1: No changes
  • TOPEX: Additional orbits after day 2004-11-01 to end of mission (Cycle 447-480)
