POLDER/PARASOL Data and Services
Since 1996, three POLDER instruments have flown : POLDER-1
onboard JAXA/ADEOS I (November 1996 – June 1997), POLDER-2
onboard JAXA/ADEOS-II (April 2003 – October 2003) and PARASOL
onboard CNES/Myriade microsatellite within the A-train constallation
(December 2004). POLDER is a wide field of view imaging radiometer that provides systematic measurements
of spectral, directional and polarized properties of the solar radiation reflected by the Earth/atmosphere system.
The ICARE data and services center is in charge of the POLDER/PARASOL derived atmospheric products, including level 2 and 3 algorithms
development, data production and distribution and imagery processing. Level-1 data are produced by
CNES/CPP and are
made available both at CNES and at ICARE (usually less than 48 hours after data acquisition). Level-1, level-2 and level-3 products are publicly available,
(a simple registration is required to access level 1 data).
We invite users to register at ICARE in order to receive relevant information about ICARE services and data sets.
All the PARASOL or POLDER data (level 1,2,3) are available on-line at Icare using ftp (ftp.icare.univ-lille.fr) or
web interface without any delay.
