L2 Waveform Peakiness Monitoring

 IPF Baseline:
Phase:

Cryosat L2 data includes a Waveform Peakiness value (field 39) for each 20Hz measurement record. Peakiness is a ratio of the maximum waveform filter (bin) value to the mean value of the bins to the right of the tracking point.

This tool provides global and polar plots of L2 Waveform Peakiness maps and histograms for each 30-day data take and SIRAL mode.
