  • Radar Altimetry Database System (RADS)

    The Radar Altimeter Database System (RADS) was developed by the Delft Institute for Earth-Oriented Space Research, the NOAA Laboratory for Satellite Altimetry, and EUMETSAT. Apart from actual altimeter data, RADS provides a suite of applications and subroutines that simplify the reading, editing and handling of data from various radar altimeters. Issues or questions related to these tools are discussed in this forum.
