GOCE-Preparation-of-the-GOCE-Level-1-to-Level-2-Data-Processing-Final-Report.pdf
The objective of the work in this contract is the design of theoverall architecture of the GOCE level 1 to 2 data processing system with special emphasis on the detailed identification and definition of all interfaces. Furthermore, the work will also coverthe detailed definition of the Level 2 products which are adequate to meet the requirements for further added value products (i.e.Level 3 and beyond).

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.
