The short course will describe the relevant altimetry data sets for ocean forecasters, giving practical examples of how to handle them in the form of open-source Jupyter Notebooks. Following this, ocean forecasting experts will detail how these data sets are incorporated into their systems, giving examples of relevant applications of the systems, and providing their perspectives. The course will be led by experts from both EUMETSAT and Mercator Océan International, who together bring extensive expertise in altimetry and the development of ocean forecasting systems.
