Statement

Data source fine to download and easy to understand. It meet requirements of the targeted product except for the fact that the satellite altimetry data is accessible as coarse resolution gridded data and therefore had to be extrapolated to assign a value to each stretch of coast, therefore losing some accuracy.

Moreover, the reconstructed sea level only reaches 62 degrees north (although in the data specification it declares it is global) and therefore some coast to the north is not filled.
