- 6f8e9811-64d3-4023-a9dd-a4d6d4c899e5 definition "The Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) mission aims to provide valuable data and information about the world's oceans and its terrestrial surface water such as lakes, rivers, and wetlands. SWOT is being developed jointly by NASA and Centre National D'Etudes Spatiales (CNES), with contributions from the Canadian Space Agency (CSA) and United Kingdom Space Agency (UKSA). The mission is targeted to launch September 2021. SWOT will measure ocean surface topography and land surface water elevation with great accuracy, using interferometry to achieve two-dimensional mapping. Observations from SWOT can be used to better understand ocean currents and processes happening at spatial scales on the order of 15-150 km, something that has not been done before. SWOT will enable high resolution (within 1 km from land) monitoring of coastal regions, including coastal currents, storm surges, and regional sea level change. On land, SWOT will provide measurements of water storage changes (surface water area and water depth) of major lakes, reservoirs, rivers, and wetlands, and support derived estimates of river discharge, which aid in assessing water resources. SWOT will observe rivers wider than 100 m and lakes with a surface area of 15 acres or more (i.e., an outline of 250 m x 250 m or 820 ft x 820 ft)." @default.
