Description
Dear ROM SAF Data User

Issued : 2017-08-29 14:26 UTC

The ROM SAF is pleased to announce the release of a refractivity profile dataset.

The dataset consists of 55 profiles of refractivity, N, as a function of alitiitude, N(z). The profiles were originally derived from ECMWF forecasts on 91 levels from the surface to ~80 km. The profiles were selected as part of a EUMETSAT study in 2012, with the aim of finding some challenging cases for the GPS receiver. Consequently, the dataset includes some large gradients and ducting cases. The profile dataset is described more fully in a technical report available with the dataset. This dataset can be used with the ROPP-9 wave optics propagation tool.
