Version 2.0 of GOCE thermosphere reprocessed data released
Version 2.0 of the GOCE thermosphere dataset is now available on the GOCE Online Dissemination Service.
User Toolbox Requirements Document - GOCE User Toolbox Specifications (GUTS)
Deliverable: WP2000: This document provides user requirement for the GOCE User Toolbox, designed around the GOCE mission.
Understanding our Planet - the Earth Observation Envelope Program
This brochure describes the Earth Observation Envelope Programme.
Understanding climate change from space
This document describes ESA's Climate Change Initiative, and how it is intended to contribute towards monitoring and understanding the Earth's climate.
Towards the Definitive Space Gravity Mission
This article appeared on the International WOCE Newsletter, issue nr. 33 published on December 1998.
Towards More Efficient Use of Radar-Altimeter Data
Twenty years ago, experimental altimeters on NASA's Skylab and Geos-3 were already demonstrating the potential of such instrumentation. This led in turn to the development and launch by NASA in July 1978 of the Seasat oceanographic satellite mission. Both Geos-3 and Seasat were very successful in their pioneering missions, but were limited somewhat by poor coverage in the case of Geos-3 and an abnormally short mission duration in Seasat's case.
Toolbox Functionality and Algorithm Specification Document - GOCE User Toolbox Specifications (GUTS)
Deliverable: WP3000: This report is the output from WP3000 of the GOCE User Toolbox Specification. The study will select the best (in terms of accuracy and computational demands) algorithms to compute the variables listed in the user requirement document [1]. This document will form the basis for the system specification work performed in WP4000 and the prototype and tutorials to be generated in WP5000, all available in this library.
TOLEOS
The TOLEOS (Thermosphere Observations from Low-Earth Orbiting Satellites) project will produce thermosphere mass density observations from the accelerometer measurements of the GRACE, GRACE-FO, and CHAMP satellites.
Timeline to over 40 years of historical satellite missions
ESA's Heritage Space Programme preserves historical data from over 40 years of Earth observation missions.
Third ESA International Conference on Spacecraft Guidance, Navigation and Control Systems
The proceedings from the Third ESA International Conference on Spacecraft Guidance, Navigation and Control Systems, which took place at ESTEC in Noordwijk, the Netherlands, from 26 to 29 November 1996, are presented here.
The-Changing-Earth-New-Scientific-Challenges-for-ESAs-Living-Planet-Programme.pdf
This article is extracted from ESA Bulletin Nr. 129.
The-CEOS-Earth-Observation-Handbook-2008.pdf
This report presents the main capabilities of satellite Earth observations, their applications, and a systematic overview of present and planned Committee on Earth Observation Satellites (CEOS) agency Earth observation satellite missions and their instruments. It also explores society's increasing need for information on our planet. This edition has a particular focus on climate change.
The Science and Research Elements of ESA Living Planet Programme
This document presents the plans for the Earth Explorer element of the European Space Agency's 'Living Planet' Programme for Earth Observation.
