Description
Summary:<p>The number of tide gauges providing coastal sea level data has significantly increased in recent decades. They help in the issue of coastal hazard warnings, in the forecasting (indirectly through models) of storm surges and tsunamis, and in operational oceanography applications. These data are automatically quality controlled in near-real time in the Copernicus Marine Service. A new initiative seeks to provide delayed-mode reprocessed data for the Copernicus Marine Service by developing a new product and upgrading the software used in its automated quality control. Several new modules, such as buddy checking or the detection of attenuated data, are implemented. The new product was launched in November of 2022. The entire reprocessing is discussed in detail. An example of the information that can be extracted from the delayed-mode reprocessed product is also given.</p>
