The Ocean Archive System searches our original datasets as they were submitted to us, not individual points or profiles. If you want to search and retrieve ocean profiles in a common format, or objectively analyzed fields, your better option may be to use one of our project applications. See: Access Data

Comments: The Group for High Resolution SST (GHRSST) is an internationally-coordinated effort to deliver high resolution, global coverage SST data in near-real time and in delayed mode. Targets for spatial resolution and timeliness are better than 10 km and within 6 hours of observation to meet the diverse needs of the operational oceanographic, meteorological, climate, and general scientific communities. Every day, GHRSST global processing systems located around the world at Regional Data Assembly Centers (RDACs) combine several complementary satellite and in situ SST data streams together and deliver integrated SST products with supporting metadata in a common netCDF format. Current GHRSST datasets include a range of individual sensor Level 2 products with resolutions ranging from 1 km to 25 km, regional blended Level 4 products with resolutions of 2 km, and global blended products with resolutions ranging from approximately 5 km to 25 km, all produced and made available on a daily basis. NODC serves as the GHRSST Long Term Stewardship and Reanalysis Facility (LTSRF, http://ghrsst.nodc.noaa.gov), and receives all GHRSST products from the Global Data Assembly Center maintained at NASA's Physical Oceanography Distributed Active Archive Center (PO.DAAC, http://ghrsst.jpl.nasa.gov). GHRSST emerged in 2008 from the GODAE High Resolution SST Pilot Project (GHRSST-PP). More information is available at the global project web site at http://www.ghrsst.org/.
