A NEW SET OF TOOLS FOR ALL ALTIMETRY USERS The field of satellite radar altimetry has matured to a point where it is now time to encourage a multimission approach and conceive an "all-altimeter" toolbox including a tutorial. Such an integrated approach and view is vital not only for assessing the current status of what offers altimeter products but ...

Reviews of Geophysics, 1983
During the past four years satellite altimetry activities have been primarily concerned with analyses of the GEOS‐3 and Seasat data sets, and the justification and design of next generation altimetric missions and associated instrumentation.Since the last IUGG Quadrennial review of satellite altimetry [Stanley, 1979a], considerable documentation of ...

SSALTO/DUACS and operational altimetry
IGARSS 2003. 2003 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium. Proceedings (IEEE Cat. No.03CH37477), 2004The SSALTO/DUACS multiple altimeter processing system provides MERCATOR, GODAE, and climate forecasting centers with directly usable, high quality near real time altimeter data. Commercial applications for the fishery and offshore industries are also developed.

A super-resolution laser altimetry concept
SPIE Proceedings, 2011A super-resolution laser altimetry technique has been proposed to provide improved lidar altimetry from Cloud Aerosol Lidar and Infrared Pathfinder Satellite Observation(CALIPSO) lidar data, and it is applicable to other similar atmospheric profiling lidar with low-pass filters.

Altimetry-Gravimetry Problem: An Example
1990The topographic surface of the sea can be determined by subtracting the geoid from the geometric height of the stationary sea surface. This latter can be obtained from altimetry measurements; the former can be derived from marine gravity measurements, treated in the form of gravity disturbances.

Altimetry in the Cassini Mission
1995 International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, IGARSS '95. Quantitative Remote Sensing for Science and Applications, 2002The main purpose of the Cassini Mission is the investigation of the geomorphologic structure of Titan, the most interesting moon of the Saturnian system. Titan is completely covered by a dense atmosphere that prevents optical observation. A spacecraft will be launched toward Saturn in 1997. The spacecraft will be equipped with microwave instruments.

Sea Modeling by Microwave Altimetry
2006In this note the applications of altimeter data to the monitoring of the sea surface height and, in particular, to the evaluation of large-scale oceanic currents are reviewed. The general problem of the altimeter measurement, with a special reference to the TOPEX/POSEIDON mission, is discussed.

IEEE Transactions on Microwave Theory and Techniques, 1992
A brief review of the historical development and principles of satellite radar altimetry is presented, with special emphasis on the unique capability of the microwave altimeter to provide valuable information for global geoscientific studies. Altimeter data over the ocean are used to monitor mean sea levels, wave height, wind speeds, and surface ...

Can SAR Altimetry Improve the Pulse-Limited Altimetry Waveforms?
Abstract Satellite altimetry has provided continuous measurements of reservoir water levels since 1992. However, pulse-limited radar altimetry missions have large footprints, which can lead to inaccuracies, particularly in reservoirs with changing water extents, narrow widths, low water levels, and complex topography.Abhilasha Garkoti, Balaji Devaraju

Bulletin géodésique, 1975
Two methods are discussed for the processing of altimetry data. For the first method it is assumed that the altimetry data, may be analyzed independent of the orbit computation for the satellite that carries the altimeter. Because of the high accuracy of the altimetry data, which can only be fully utilized if it is also introduced into the orbit ...
