Mission - Copernicus Sentinels
Copernicus Sentinel-3
Copernicus Sentinel-3 is an European Earth Observation satellite mission developed to support Copernicus ocean, land, atmospheric, emergency, security and cryospheric applications.
Mission - Earth Explorers
Swarm
Swarm is dedicated to creating a highly detailed survey of Earth’s geomagnetic field and its temporal evolution as well as the electric field in the atmosphere using a constellation of three identical satellites.
Mission - Earth Explorers
GOCE
ESA's Gravity field and Ocean Circulation Explorer (GOCE) mission mapped Earth's geoid very accurately, opening a window into Earth's interior structure as well as the currents circulating within the depths of its oceans.
Tools - Other
Swarm-Aurora
Swarm-Aurora, a web-based tool, was designed to facilitate and drive the use of Swarm in-situ measurements in auroral science.
Activity - Projects
Auroral Electrojet and auroral Boundaries estimated from Swarm observations
In the Swarm-AEBS project, a set of new Swarm data products that characterise the auroral electrojets and auroral oval boundaries will be derived from Swarm magnetic field measurements.

GOCE-Preparation-of-the-GOCE-Level-1-to-Level-2-Data-Processing-Final-Report.pdf
The objective of the work in this contract is the design of theoverall architecture of the GOCE level 1 to 2 data processing system with special emphasis on the detailed identification and definition of all interfaces. Furthermore, the work will also coverthe detailed definition of the Level 2 products which are adequate to meet the requirements for further added value products (i.e.Level 3 and beyond).
