Abstract

NASA plans for a Geostationary Earth Observatory (GEO) platform meant to operate in conjunction with the polar orbiting Earth Observing System (EOS) are discussed. The scientific goals of the GEO platform are summarized, and the facility's instruments are examined, including the microwave precipitation radiometer, atmospheric profiler, earth processes spectrometer, advanced lightning mapper, high resolution earth processes imager, operational instrument suite, solar constant and spectrum monitors, earth climate sensor, and trace gas imager. The GEO system to provide data and information to users is addressed.
