GW is the primary driver for many of the NWS’s global models, including the Global Forecast System (GFS), Global Ensemble Forecast System (GEFS), and the upcoming Climate Forecast System (CFS) successor, the Seasonal Forecast System (SFS) and the upcoming Global Chemistry and Aerosols Forecast System (GCAFS). The workflow is currently managed by National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Office of Model Development (OMD), which is also the primary developer. The Earth Prediction Innovation Center (EPIC) is responsible for the public release and user support of the GW.

NOAA's Coastal Ocean Reanalysis (CORA) for the Gulf, East Coast/Atlantic, and Caribbean (GEC) is produced using verified hourly water levels from the National Ocean Service’s Center of Operational Oceanographic Products & Services (CO-OPS). ADvanced CIRCulation Model (ADCIRC) and Simulating WAves Nearshore (SWAN) models are coupled to model coastal water levels and nearshore waves. Hourly water level observations are used for data assimilation and validation to improve the accuracy of modeled water levels and wave datasets.

S-102 is a data and metadata encoding specification that is part of the S-100 Universal Hydrographic Data Model, an international standard for hydrographic data exchange. This collection of data contains bathymetric surfaces from NOAA/NOS/OCS National Bathymetric Source, for various U.S. coastal and offshore waters and the great lakes. These datasets are encoded as HDF5 files conforming to the S-102 specification.
S-104 is a data and metadata encoding specification that is part of the S-100 Universal Hydrographic Data Model, an international standard for hydrographic data. This collection of data contains water level forecast guidance from NOAA's Global Surge and Tide Operational Forecast System 2-D (STOFS-2D-Global), an operational hydrodynamic nowcast and forecast modeling system for global water level conditions. These datasets are encoded as HDF-5 files conforming to the S-104 specification, and are geospatially subset into individual tiles conforming to the NOAA/OCS Nautical Product Tiling Scheme, with filenames indicating the corresponding NOAA Electronic Navigational Chart (ENC) Cell Identifier. A set of prototype S-104 tiles has been created for the Charleston, SC area for a select model run cycle. Each individual S-104 (HDF-5) file contains all forecast projections from a single mod[...]
