The use of NASA Common Metadata Repository (CMR) API to download and subset is described along with navigating the maze of various Jason-3 Level-2 Products depending on the use-case. This talk introduces to this open dataset and various other altimetry missions, to allow for multi-mission monitoring of reservoirs of the world. It further uses Free and Open Source Software (CMR Specification, Xarray) to pre-process the data for use.
