Advanced Training Course in Ocean Remote Sensing 2011
Within the framework of the Dragon Programme, a joint collaboration between the European Space Agency (ESA) and the Chinese Ministry of Science and Technology (MOST), ESA and NRSCC are providing a series of advanced thematic training courses on remote sensing applications hosted by university and research institutions in P.R. China.
Activity - Quality
ALGOM
The ALGOM: GOMOS Level 2 Algorithm Evolution Studies project consists of different Level 2 studies aimed at the improvement of the quality of the GOMOS products.
Tools - Processing
AMORGOS
The AMORGOS tool generates accurate geo-location GOS E information (longitude, latitude, altitude) for each MERIS pixel.
Event - Workshop
Applications of the ERS Along Track Scanning Radiometer Workshop 1999
The workshop on ERS mission's Along Track Scanning Radiometer (ATSR) instrument gathered researchers and specialists working on different applications of the mission.
Activity - Projects
Dragon 2 Cooperation Programme
The Dragon 2 Programme focussed on the exploitation of ESA, ESA's Third Party Missions and Chinese Earth observation data for science and applications development in land, ocean and atmospheric applications.

Mission - Heritage Missions
Envisat
Envisat was ESA's successor to ERS. Envisat carried ten instruments aboard for a wide range of Earth observing fields. The mission was operational from 2002 to 2012.
Document - Technical Note
Envisat-GOMOS-An-Instrument-for-Global-Atmospheric-Ozone-Monitoring.pdf
This report is one of a series being published to help publicise the European Space Agency's environmental research satellite Envisat. It is intended to support the preparation of the Earth Observation community to utilise the measurements of the GOMOS (Global Ozone Monitoring by Occultation of Stars) instrument, which forms an important part of the Envisat payload.
Document - General Reference
envisat-mipas-instrument-description.pdf
This report, produced before the launch of Envisat, describes the MIPAS instrument and the reasons behind creating the instrument.
Activity - General activities
EO Summer Schools
ESA's series of summer schools, on Monitoring of the Earth System, aims to promote the exploitation of Earth observation (EO) data.
Mission - Heritage Missions
ERS
The ERS programme was composed of two missions, ERS-1 and ERS-2, which together observed the Earth for 20 years, from 1991 to 2011.
News - Data Release news
ERS-1 Scatterometer L2 dataset processed with ASPS v10.04 is available online
The reprocessed dataset together with corresponding ERS-2 data is now available.
Data - Fast Registration with immediate access (Open)
ERS-1/2 SCATTEROMETER Nominal Resolution back-scattering measurements, Ocean Wind field [UWI]
The ERS data reprocessed with the ASPS facility is also available in the UWI format to maintain the compatibility with the FD (Fast Delivery) products. The ASPS UWI product is organised in frames of 500 x 500 km providing the radar backscattering sigma nought for the three beams of the instrument plus the wind speed and direction. The wind retrieval is performed with the CMOD5N geophysical model function derived by ECMWF to compute the neutral winds rather than 10m winds. ASPS UWI products are provided with a spatial resolution of 50 x 50 km and a grid spacing of 25 km. One product covers one orbit from ascending node crossing. Please consult the Product Quality Readme file before using the ERS ASPS data.

ERS-1/2 SCATTEROMETER Ocean Wind field and Sea Ice probability [ASPS20.H/ASPS20.N]
The ASPS Level 2 products contain, for each node: the radar backscattering sigma nought for the three beams of the instrument, the four aliased wind solutions (Rank 1-4 wind vector) and the de-aliased wind vector flag, the sea-ice probability and sea-ice flag, the YAW quality flag. The wind retrieval is performed with the CMOD5N geophysical model function derived by ECMWF to compute the neutral winds rather than 10 m winds. ASPS L2.0 High resolution products are provided with a spatial resolution of 25x25 km and a grid spacing of 12.5 km. ASPS L2.0 Nominal resolution products are provided with a spatial resolution of 50x50 km and a grid spacing of 25 km. One product covers one orbit from ascending node crossing. Please consult the Product Quality Readme file before using the ERS ASPS data.
