Introduction This document identifies all the data that have been used by the partners to run the various algorithms as well as the data needed for the inter-comparison and selection. A distinction is made between the phase I (2010-2013) and phase II (2014-2016) of the Sea Level CCI project and the information related to phase I are appended at the end of this document. All the partners have contributed to this document. The required data can be classified into several categories: The Instrumental characteristics The satellite data from L0 to L2 products. Concerning the satellite data, all the ESA (ERS-1/2, ENVISAT), CNES/EUMETSAT/NASA/NOAA (T/P, Jason-1/2) and US Navy (GFO) mission series will be optimally combined to produce the FCDR and ECV products. Figure 1 summarizes the different dataset and periods that will be used. The associated ancillary data The products needed for product inter-comparison and selection (in-situ, L3, L4, L5) All these data are detailed in this document. Note also that the reference document RD 1 also identifies the EO data required for the Sea level CCI project. They are all reported here, and more exhaustively specified, so this document becomes the applicable reference document. 2. Ordering strategy Considering the required data to perform the activities of the Sea level CCI project, two categories of products are distinguished: data already owned by the partners of the Sea Level CCI consortium. For these data, no detailed information is provided as no ordering is necessary; data that are not owned by the partners of the Sea Level CCI consortium, for which detailed information is provided in this document. Among the data to be ordered, two kinds of delivery are distinguished. We will need a one shot delivery on the overall period of availability. For data (satellite, ancillary …) that are operationally processed, we will need to set up a regular delivery mechanism in order to update the sea level CCI database. 3. Period of study The reference period for the SLCCI will be 1991-07 to 2010-12 for phase I and the V1 associated products and up to 2015-12 for phase II of the project and the reprocessed V2 associated products.

Phasing of the project with the reprocessing activities 4.1. SL-CCI phase I The information related with Phase I of the project can be found in Appendix B -. 4.2. SL-CCI phase II The technical developments performed within WP2000 have started on February 2014 and have ended on summer 2015. These new algorithms will be evaluated and the best one will be selected at the end of 2015 for the production of the reprocessed V2.0 sea level ECV products planned in 2016. Thus, the input data have to be available at the beginning of 2014. The following plot (Fig. 2) shows the phasing of the altimetry activity against the other altimetry projects and in particular with the reprocessing activities considering SL_cci phase II. These reprocessing projects are independent of the SL_cci project. The phasing of the activities thus depends on the schedule of these external projects: ERS1/2 REAPER project, available 2014-2015. ENVISAT reprocessed data, available in 2016 but the schedule
