EarthCARE Auxiliary Data for Cal/Val Users
EarthCARE data products encompass essential supporting auxiliary (AUX) and orbit data critical for accurate sensor data processing and analysis. AUX data includes datasets used outside the primary Space Segment stream to apply corrections to sensor data. This comprises previously derived calibration parameters, ground control data, and digital elevation data. Calibration parameters ensure measurement accuracy, while ground control data aids in data validation, and digital elevation data enables precise geolocation. Orbit data consists of on-board satellite data and orbital information. For EarthCARE, this includes Reconstructed Orbit and Attitude Files, which provide detailed satellite positioning and orientation information. The integration of AUX and orbit data into EarthCARE's data processing workflow ensures the production of high-quality, scientifically valuable datasets for atmospheric research, climate modelling, and environmental monitoring.

Envisat DORIS Precise Orbit [DOR_VOR_AX]
The latest version of the Envisat DORIS Precise Orbit product, DOR_VOR_AX, was generated by the Centre de Traitement Doris Poseidon (CTDP) using the Geophysical Data Records F standards (GDR-F). The product is used to obtain the satellite orbital parameters (latitude, longitude, height and height rate) by using orbit computation routines. The most significant changes related to the GDR-F standards concern the new ocean tide model (FES2014) and the updated Terrestrial Reference Frame (ITRF2014). The new standards significantly improve all Precise Orbit Determination (POD) metrics with respect to GDR-E. The mean difference and variance of Sea Surface Height (SSH) at crossovers is slightly reduced. The DOR_VOR_AX product adopts the Envisat format, and the size is 0.2 Mbytes per orbit. Users are recommended to apply the GDR-F version, but the previous datasets are still available (i.e. GDR-D and GDR-E versions). See further details in the readme file for Envisat DORIS Precise Orbit Determination files. Comparison of Envisat Sea Level Anomaly trends obtained using DORIS Precise Orbit GDR-E and F standards. North/South patterns are evident. Credits: CNES/CLS.
