Scientific paper

In 1998, the European Space Agency (ESA) has selected about 670 project proposals for the scientific exploitation of Envisat data, in addition to the on-going 270 ERS projects resulting from previous ESA Announcement of Opportunity. Within the new Data Policy for ERS and Envisat data distribution, scientists can submit a proposal at any time for category-1 use. The so-called Category-1 use is assigned to research and applications development projects in support of the mission objectives, including research on long term issues of Earth System science, research and development in preparation for future operational use. All information submitted by the category 1 Project Leader to ESA is available to the Project Correspondent, an ESA expert appointed to follow closely a number of projects in a given discipline or geographic area. The correspondent is the ESA focal point with whom not only to raise technical matters, specific to individual projects, but also to discuss broader issues related to progress in research and development, science and application domains. This paper will describe how ESA is monitoring the category-1 projects, including the AO projects. Example of actions in support to land applications using ERS and Envisat data will be presented.
