The Earth Observing System

Abstract

NASA's Earth Observing System (EOS) is a prospective program for earth observation from space using various unmanned, sun-synchronous polar orbit sensor platforms in conjunction with the Space Station to conduct measurements over a period of 15 years. The most important instruments will be the Moderate-Resolution Imaging Spectrometer, the High-Resolution Imaging Spectrometer, a large-area coverage SAR, the Laser Atmospheric Wind Sounder, the Atmospheric IR Sounder, and a Geodynamics and Laser-Ranging System.
