ESA makes first GOCE dataset available
Date:6/9/2010

berhagen said.

"GOCE is proving to be a remarkable Earth science mission and we are more than confident that these data will not only change the way we see the gravity field of our planet but also the way the gravity field information is used in many branches of the geosciences."

Subsequently, these level-1b data will be processed to level-2 through the High-level Processing Facility (HPF). Under ESA's control, 10 European universities and research facilities that have complementary expertise in gravity and geodesy-related science fields, have joined together and will be operating the HPF throughout GOCE's lifetime.

The first gravity field model (level-2 data) will be released at ESA's Living Planet Symposium in Bergen, Norway, from 28 June to 2 July.

"The Living Planet Symposium will in many ways be a coming-out event for GOCE. We will spend two full days on the findings of the mission so far, and we certainly expect the release of our first gravity model to mark the beginning of a long and successful series of gravity field models based on GOCE's novel measurement techniques," Floberhagen said.

The final gravity map and model of the geoid will provide users with well-defined data products that will be instrumental in advancing science and applications in a broad range of disciplines, ranging from geodesy, geophysics and surveying to oceanography and sea-level research.
