ESA's Earth Explorers surpassing expectations
In this video, learn how each Earth Explorer mission is contributing to Earth science, and changing the way we look at our beloved planet.
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.
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.
Data - Announcement of Opportunity (Restrained)
CLOSED - EarthCARE Calibration and Validation Announcement of Opportunity
ESA offered an announcement of opportunity to support the calibration and validation of EarthCARE products. This opportunity closed in 2017.
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.
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 - 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.

Document - Algorithms Theoretical Baseline Document
EarthCARE-ATLID-L1-ATBO.pdf
This document provides the main processing steps required to generate EarthCARE ATLID Level 1B products and an overview of the algorithm. It is an Algorithm Theoretical Baseline Overview Document.
Activity - General activities
GSCB and LTDP
The Copernicus programme is based on a fleet of European Earth observation satellites, built and operated by ESA, member states and commercial entities. Copernicus will also offer data from non-European satellites.
Activity - Projects
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.
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.

Satellite data central to ocean monitoring
Over 95% of Earth’s water is found in our oceans, and yet sadly, oceans are under stress from climate change and pollution. Monitoring our oceans is vital for Earth’s survival and satellites are the primary means of long-term and independent observation of our vast ocean bodies and their associated coastal zones.
