ESAs-Gravity-Mission-GOCE.pdf
This brochure gives an introduction to the Gravity Field and Steady-State Ocean Circulation Mission GOCE, an Earth Explorer Core mission due for launch in 2006. GOCE is intended to provide the unique data set required to formulate global and regional models of the Earth's gravity field and the geoid (its referenceequipotential surface) to high spatial resolution and accuracy.
