ERS-Central-User-Service-Data-Structures.pdf
This document contains the detailed description of the low level data structures used in the external interfaces of the ESRIN ERS Central Facility (EECF) and in perticular of the Central User Service (CUS).
ERS-Ground-Stations-Products-Specification.pdf
This document defines all outgoing products generated by the ERS-1 and ERS-2 Ground Stations at: Kiruna, Fucino, Maspalomas, Gatineau and Prince Albert. Products are defined in terms of their structure, content and format. Distribution media are defined in terms of their type and format.
PREMIER-Report-for-Mission-Selection-An-Earth-Explorer-to-observe-atmospheric-composition.pdf
The objective of the PREMIER mission is to quantify the processes controlling global atmospheric composition in the mid/upper troposphere and lower stratosphere (5-25 km height range), which is a region of particular importance for climate change.
The Earth Observation Handbook, 2010 Update - Key Tables
This is the 2010 update of the CEOS Earth Observation Handbook. You can browse the live database at http://database.eohandbook.com/ or download the printable PDF of key tables based on the 2010 database contents for a handy reference.
RA-Characterisation-Data.pdf
This document can be regarded as a first issue of the long-awaited RA Characterisation Database. It contains values for all parameters which have been requested, except for some special cases which will be explained later. It contains many other parameters as well. For example it also contains all the parameters used in the LRDPF (and referred to in ER-RP-DSF-SY-0007) except for the parameters forseen to be updated frequently, such as the barometric pressure field (which will come from ECMWF).
Radar-Altimeter-Ground-Processing-Requirement.pdf
This document defines the Fast Delivery Ground Processing Algorithm Requirements for the ERS-1 Radar Altimeter. It does not include the basic tasks of decoding the telemetry stream, and assumes that the relevant parameters have been extracted for ingestion into the algorithms presented here.
SMOS-ESAs-Water-Mission-Fact-sheet.pdf
This document provided a series of information on the SMOS mission.
Second-EPS-MetOp-RAO-Workshop.pdf
Proceedings of the 2nd EPS/MetOp RAO Workshop held from 20-22 May 2009 in Barcelona, Spain.
Meteosat-Second-Generation-The-Satellite-Development.pdf
This publication provides a comprehensive overview of the history of the MSG programme, the mission objectives, the design and development of the MSG spacecraft.
Meteosat-Second-Generation.pdf
This flyer summarises in short the aims, applications and technology of the MSG mission.
The Global Ozone Monitoring Experiment (GOME)
This document reports on what can be expected from the improved GOME-2 instrument. In order to underpin the case, the achievements of the existing instrument, GOME-1, in terms of instrument performance, routinely generated data products, and scientific results achieved so far are first summarised, before extrapolating to the expected performances and capabilities of the enhanced version GOME-2 being built for METOP.
The four Candidate Earth Explorer Core Missions - Land-Surface Processes and Interactions Mission
This report describes the Land-Surface Processes and Interactions Mission, one of the four Candidate Earth Explorers in 1999.
The four Candidate Earth Explorer Core Missions - Earth Radiation Mission
This report describes the Earth Radiation Mission, one of the four Candidate Earth Explorers in 1999.
The four Candidate Earth Explorer Core Missions - Atmospheric Dynamics Mission
This report describes the Atmospheric Dynamics Mission, one of the four Candidate Earth Explorers in 1999.
Global-Ozone-Monitoring-Experiment-(GOME)-Interim-Science-Report.pdf
To obtain final confidence in the scientific validity of the GOME for its inclusion in the ERS-2 mission, in 1993 the Agency asked a group of scientists to review the scientific objectives and capabilities of the GOME. This 'historical' report covers the scientific rationale and objectives of GOME and assesses its capabilities.
GOME-A-new-instrument-for-ERS-2.pdf
This document provides a technical overview of the GOME (Global Ozone Monitoring Experiment) instrument that is carried aboard ERS-2.
GOME-Diffuser-and-Dark-Signal-Trends-June-1995-June-2002.pdf
This document provides an analysis of the GOME diffuser plate stability and the detector array dark signal measurements during time period June 1995 - June 2002.
GOME-Geophysical-Validation-Campaign-Final-Results.pdf
Workshop proceedings of the GOME Final results Geophysical Campaign, held on 24-26 January 1996 at ESA-ESRIN Frascati, Italy.
GOME-Ozone-Fast-Delivery-and-value-added-products-Algorithm-Specification-Document.pdf
This document describes the algorithms used for calibration the ERS GOME Ozone Fast Delivery products.
GOME-Ozone-Fast-Delivery-and-value-added-products-Validation-Document.pdf
This document gives an overview of the results of the validation of the ERS GOME Fast Delivery level 2 data (vertical ozone columns). Validation is an important part of the the GOFAP project and involves the assessing of the quality of the Fast Delivery vertical ozone columns by independent means and provides an estimate of the random and systematic errors.
