%X <p>This dataset contains the research data underlying the publication "Polygon-Informed Cross-Track Altimetry (PICTA): Estimating river water level profiles with the Sentinel-6 altimeter". The preprint of this publication is available at SSRN: <a href="https://dx-doi-org.tudelft.idm.oclc.org/10.2139/ssrn.4851452" target="_blank">http://dx.doi.org.tudelft.idm.oclc.org/10.2139/ssrn.4851452 </a></p><p><br></p><p><strong>Contents</strong></p><p>The dataset contains altimetry data of the Sentinel-6 mission over small parts of the Garonne and Creuse rivers in France in two processing stages:</p><ol><li>the FFSAR-processed altimetry signal, derived from EUMETSAT Level-1a altimetry data (<a href="http://doi.org/10.15770/EUM_SEC_CLM_0093" target="_blank">http://doi.org/10.15770/EUM_SEC_CLM_0093</a>) via the processor described in Ehlers et al. 2022 (http://doi.org/10.1016/j.asr.2022.11.034).

For convenience, both the FFSAR-processed and the PICTA-derived data that belong to a specific overpass carry the original file identifier of the underlying Level-1a altimetry data (<a href="http://doi.org/10.15770/EUM_SEC_CLM_0093" target="_blank">http://doi.org/10.15770/EUM_SEC_CLM_0093</a>) plus the extension "_TUDelft".</p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><br></p>
