  abstract = {{T}o improve the quality of the bathy-messages, sent to the {G}lobal {T}ransmission {S}ystem of the {W}orld {W}eather {W}atch via the {A}rgos satellite, by {ORSTOM} {C}.{L}.{S}. service {A}rgos software onboards ships of opportunity, the following operations are implemented : i) a combination of a nonlinear median filter in order to despike the e{X}pandable {B}athy{T}hermogramme profile prior to onboard quality control, ii) plus a linear {H}anning filter, to filter out the small scale features before using the {B}roken stick data reduction method (that gives directly the required number of significant data point without iteration), iii) and a final regression fit. {O}nly bathy-messages are computed only to the deph of the deepest "good" data point. {S}o very few bathymessages are rejected later on, during the successive quality controls.
