Satellite missions in the Vision for the GOS in 2025
Transition from R&D to operational status
New missionsfor WMO
GEO: imager, HS IR sounder, lightning Sun-synchronous: imager, IR/MW sounders
Ocean surface topography constellation Radio-Occultation Sounding constellation Ocean Surface Wind constellation Global Precipitation constellation Earth Radiation Budget (incl. GEO) Atmospheric Composition (incl. GEO) Ocean colour and vegetation imaging Dual-angle view IR imagery
Land Surface Imaging Synthetic Aperture Radar Space Weather instruments
VIS/IR imagers in HEO Doppler wind lidar, Low-frequency MW GEO MW High-resolution narrow-band imagers Gravimetric sensors
Heritage operational missions
Operational pathfinders and demonstrators
46th GOES Users' Conference, Madison, Wisconsin, Nov 3-5
• Rapidly evolving weather patterns– Convection /severe storms / hurricanes – Targeted observation
• Wind– Clouds and water vapour motion tracking
• Event detection – Lightning, wild fires– Volcanic ash clouds
• Diurnal variation– LST, SST, Radiation– Peak values (air quality)
• Maximize cloud-free pixels
Permanent watch from GEO orbit
56th GOES Users' Conference, Madison, Wisconsin, Nov 3-5
High-latitude coverage by HEO satellites
• Supplementing the GEO coverage above 60/70 deg Winds and clouds (rapidly developing polar lows) Sea ice and sea surface temperature Volcanic ash plumes(For NWP, synoptic weather forecasting, aeronautical
meteorology, marine meteorology, climate monitoring, Global Cryosphere Watch)
• Recommended demonstration (operational pathfinder)• Compare cost/benefit with LEO constellation
• Synergy with other missions in HEO (telecom)
66th GOES Users' Conference, Madison, Wisconsin, Nov 3-5
Challenges and opportunities• Geostationary operational missions
– IR hyperspectral sounding on every operational GEO Near-global lightning detection (GOES, Meteosat, FY-4)
GEO microwave imager/sounder for precipitation rate
• Operational pathfinders in HEO Scientific and operational cooperation– Sustainability to be confirmed
• Integration of GEO, LEO (and HEO) observations– Intercalibration– Data standardization– Composite products
