    • SWOT Simulated Level 2 North America Continent High Rate River Vectors Product Version 1.0

    Metadata Updated: October 30, 2025

    This dataset contains a simulated river data product to be provided by the Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) mission. SWOT will provide a global coverage but this dataset is a subset for the North America continent. This product is derived from the measurements produced by the main SWOT instrument, the Ka-band Interferometer. They are produced for inland and coastal hydrology surfaces, as controlled by the reloadable KaRIn HR mask. This product contains two shapefiles: 1) river reaches (approximately 10 km long) identified in the prior river database (PRD); and 2) river nodes (approximately 200 m spacing) identified in prior river database (PRD). Each river reach is divided into a number of nodes. Attributes include water surface elevation, slope, width, and uncertainty estimates. As they are derived from SWOT KaRIn measurements, each granule covers an area that is approximately 128 km wide in the cross-track direction with a 20-km nadir gap. Note that this is a simulated SWOT product and not suited for any scientific exploration.
