As of October 17, 2024, the Swipe (Swarm Ionospheric Polar Electrodynamics) version 0.95 model is available to the community through the CCMC instant-Run (IR) service via this submission URL.

The Swipe model is an empirical model of high-latitude ionospheric electrodynamics based on Swarm ion drift measurements, and Swarm and CHallenging Minisatellite Payload (CHAMP) magnetic field measurements. The model does not assume hemispheric asymmetry, and provides independent estimates of all quantities in each hemisphere.
