## SWOT Background

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 jointly developed by NASA and Centre National D'Etudes Spatiales (CNES), with contributions from the Canadian Space Agency (CSA) and United Kingdom Space Agency (UKSA). The satellite launched on December 16, 2022. PO.DAAC is the NASA archive for the SWOT mission, and has made data available via the NASA Earthdata Cloud (hosted in AWS) with direct download capabilities available. PO.DAAC hosts a variety of [SWOT data products](https://podaac.jpl.nasa.gov/SWOT?tab=datasets-information), whose product description documents can be found in the chart listing each dataset. More information can be found on [PO.DAAC's SWOT webpage](https://podaac.jpl.nasa.gov/SWOT) and the [SWOT Data User Handbook](https://archive.podaac.earthdata.nasa.gov/podaac-ops-cumulus-docs/web-misc/swot_mission_docs/D-109532_SWOT_UserHandbook_20240502.pdf). Refer to this [Mission Events](https://podaac.jpl.nasa.gov/SWOT-events/SWOT_events.html) page for relevant information about spacecraft events that impact data quality and availability.
