Scientific paper
The Gravity field and steady-state Ocean Circulation Explorer (GOCE) Mission is the first Earth Explorer Core mission of the Living Planet programme of the European Space Agency (ESA). The satellite is in the final stages of testing and is getting ready for launch in spring of 2008. The primary objective of the GOCE mission is to provide global and regional models of the Earth gravity field and the geoid, its reference equipotential surface, with unprecendented spatial resolution and accuracy. The high resolution static gravity field and gravimetric geoid measured by GOCE will stimulate research in a wide range of disciplines spanning studies of ocean circulation, cryosphere, solid-earth physics, natural hazards, geodesy and surveying. In this paper we will present the status of the development and testing activities of the GOCE satellite proto-flight model, the instruments and the ground segment elements, including the expected performance of the GOCE data products.
