Analysis on the Accuracy of Marine Gravity Inversion from the Wide-swath Altimeter Mission

2020
<p>Marine gravity is mainly inversed by the nadir satellite altimetry observations. However, the accuracy of the east-west component of vertical deflection is significantly lower than the north-south component. The wide-swath altimeter is one of the main altimetry missions in the future.

Centimetric sea surface height accuracy using the Wide-Swath Ocean altimeter

IGARSS 2003. 2003 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium. Proceedings (IEEE Cat. No.03CH37477), 2004
In this paper, we present error sources and predicted performance of the Wide-Swath Ocean altimeter, an instrument which has been proposed as an experiment for the NASA/CNES Ocean Surface Topography Mission. The data obtained by this instrument will allow the detailed study of ocean mesoscale phenomena, with a space-time resolution which cannot be ...

The Effects of Random Error on the Measurement Results of Wide-Swath Interferometric Imaging Radar Altimeter

IGARSS 2019 - 2019 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2019
Aiming at the observation of sub-mesoscale ocean dynamics, Pilot National Laboratory for Marine Science and Technology (Qingdao) proposed the GuanLan marine satellite program. The new interferometric imaging radar altimeter (InIRA) sensor is used to realize high accuracy observation of marine dynamics through Ku band and Ka band, which makes up for the

The wide swath ocean altimeter: radar interferometry for global ocean mapping with centimetric accuracy

Proceedings, IEEE Aerospace Conference, 2003
The recent Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) has demonstrated the capability for global interferometric topographic mapping with meter level accuracy and 30 meter spatial resolution. The next challenge in radar interferometry is the measurement of ocean topography: the global characterization of ocean mesoscale eddies requires global coverage ...

A Novel Fusion Method of Optical and Wide-Swath Interferometric Radar Altimeter Images for Enhanced Water Detection

IEEE Transactions on Geoscience and Remote Sensing
Surface water detection directly from wide-swath interferometric radar altimeter (WSIRA) imagery (e.g., SWOT KaRIn, TG-2 InRIA (SWOT) (KaRIn) and TG-2 InRIA) is confronted with three major challenges: 1) the dark water phenomenon caused by calm water ...
