ESA conducts airborne and in-situ campaigns in support of operational and future satellite missions. These campaigns play an important role in the calibration and validation of satellite sensors or test the feasibility of applications for future satellites.

Datasets from nine new campaigns, conducted between 2014 and 2019 and covering operational missions such as CryoSat, and future missions including EarthCARE and Biomass have now been released and are available to download upon successful approval of a proposal for the data.
