Description:

The GEOSAT radar altimeter has provided more than 4 years of global observations of sea level, wind speed, and significant wave height since its launch in March 1985. Although sea level observations made by GEOSAT during the first 18 months of the mission are classified, data collected after November 8, 1986, are publicly available through NOAA. This portion of the GEOSAT mission is known as the Exact Repeat Mission (ERM) because the ground track repeats within approximately 1 km every 17 days.
