MISSIONS
Explore the European Space Agency's Earth Observation satellite missions. Learn all about ESA's dedicated Earth Explorers or collaborations with other agencies through the Third Party Missions programme.
Mission - Earth Explorers
GOCE
Explorer (GOCE) mission mapped Earth's geoid very accurately, opening a window into Earth's interior structure as well as the currents
Mission - Heritage Missions
MOS-1/1B
MOS-1 and 1B, Japan’s first marine observation satellites, were designed to monitor ocean currents, sea surface temperature
Mission - Third Party Missions
ICEYE
Currently, the satellites operate in five modes called 'Strip Mode', 'Spot Mode', 'Scan Mode', 'Spot Extended Area (SLEA)
Mission - Heritage Missions
Seasat
The instrument had the objectives of the determination of sea surface profiles, currents, wind speeds and wave heights.

SMOS Objectives
SMOS Science The SMOS mission is a direct response to the current lack of global observations of soil moisture and ocean
Mission - Earth Explorers
Special Datasets Overview
CryoSat Antarctic Digital Elevation Model - Download the current CryoSat product Antarctic DEM.
Mission - Heritage Missions
RA (ERS)
the RA provided information on significant wave height; surface wind speed; sea surface elevation, which relates to ocean currents
Mission - Earth Explorers
EGG
This opened a window into Earth's interior structure, as well as the currents circulating within the depths of its oceans
Mission - Heritage Missions
ERS Radar Course 1
Therefore, microwaves easily penetrate clouds, and images can be acquired independently of the current weather conditions
Mission - Earth Explorers
SSTI ANTEX Data
data were generated from 154 days in 2009 GOCE SSTI-B PCVs data were generated from the available data in 2010-2012 The current
