Availability Commitment. The level of operationality of AVISO+ products depends on the type of product and the mission. The core products of space missions (typically level 1 and level 2 geophysical data processed by CNES) are processed by operational ground segments, delivery delays mentioned on the AVISO+ website are defined as mission requirements and all human and material means are used to meet those requirements and avoid delivery delays. Concerning AVISO+ level 3 and level 4 products processed by the multimission SSALTO/DUACS system, they are processed on operational systems and their delivery is considered as operational. AVISO+ Auxiliary products, indicators and in-situ products are updated regularly on a reasonable- effort basis (except MSL considered as operational indicator). For expertise products such as PISTACH, PEACHI, X-TRACK and demonstration products no operational commitment are defined. Mean delivery delays are indicated on the AVISO+ website but they are not a formal commitment from CNES and CTOH as the product processing is made on a reasonable-effort basis. Moreover, some of those products are "research grade products". See the appendix table summarizing operational commitments for more details.
