The recipe for a successful study of the Jovian interior structure is given by the association of seismology and precise visible photometry. In this framework, the micro-satellite project Jovis, presented to the French space agency (Mosser et al. 2004), is for Jupiter a copy of what the European space mission COROT is for the stars. The Jovian visible flux being dominated by the albedo map, an accurate analysis of the cloud response to a seismic wave has been done by Gaulme & Mosser (2005). When submitted to a plane wave of 0.5 m/s the cloud albedo fluctuates up to 70 ppm. We extend these results to the whole Jovian map and we estimate the visibility of the modes with the JOVIS micro-satellite.
