51 WP2-092 The source of wind speed information must be specified in the L2P confidence data variable Wspd_source (defined in<br />

Table 2.1.4) and the difference in acquisition time between SST observation and wind speed measure must be specified in<br />

confidence data variable Wspd_value described in Table A1.2.2. As a general rule for the GDS v1.0, only simultaneous<br />

wind speed measurements should be used otherwise NWP analyses should be used. Future revisions of the GDS will<br />

most likely use near contemporaneous wind speed observations from other satellite instruments.<br />
