However, conventional data reconstruction approaches encounter substantial challenges when facing the nonlinear oceanic system and high-resolution fusion of variables. This research presents a Discrete Satellite Gridding Neural Network (DSGNN), a new machine learning method that processes satellite data within a discrete grid framework. By transforming the positional information of grid elements into a standardized vector format, the DSGNN significantly elevates the accuracy and resolution of data fusion through a neural network model. This method\u2019s innovative aspect lies in its discretization and fusion technique, which not only enhances the spatial resolution of oceanic data but also, through the integration of multi-element datasets, better reflects the true physical state of the ocean. A comprehensive analysis of the reconstructed datasets indicates the DSGNN\u2019s consistency and reliability across different seasons and oceanic regions, especially in its adept handling of complex nonlinear interactions and small-scale oceanic features. The DSGNN method has demonstrated exceptional competence in reconstructing global ocean datasets, maintaining small error variance, and achieving high congruence with in situ observations, which is almost equivalent to 1\/12\u00b0 hybrid coordinate ocean model (HYCOM) data. This study offers a novel and potent strategy for the high-resolution reconstruction and fusion of ocean satellite datasets.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/rs16163020","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,8,19]],"date-time":"2024-08-19T05:19:36Z","timestamp":1724044776000},"page":"3020","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Enhancing the Resolution of Satellite Ocean Data Using Discretized Satellite Gridding Neural Networks"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"16","author":[{"given":"Shirong","family":"Liu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Meteorology and Oceanology, National University of Defense Technology, Changsha 410073, China"}]},{"given":"Wentao","family":"Jia","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Meteorology and Oceanology, National University of Defense Technology, Changsha 410073, China"}]},{"given":"Qianyun","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Xiamen Meteorological Service Center, Xiamen 361000, China"}]},{"given":"Weimin","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Meteorology and Oceanology, National University of Defense Technology, Changsha 410073, China"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4334-3882","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Huizan","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Meteorology and Oceanology, National University of Defense Technology, Changsha 410073, China"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,8,17]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Zhao, Q., Yu, L., Du, Z., Peng, D., Hao, P., Zhang, Y., and Gong, P.
