Satellite geophysics. Generelt. C.C.Tscherning, University of Copenhagen, Some instruments only look ”down” Some instruments may be turned around one axis There is large differences in resolution and coverage. Most are sun-syncroneous Repeat cycle varies a lot: From 1 day (with 5 satellitter)
Satellite geophysics. Dephts. C.C.Tscherning, University of Copenhagen, From sea-surface height minus sea-surface topography (approximately the geoid) gravity may be computed due to the validity of the Laplace equation. Then inverse problem is solved, and dephts are obtained using density of sea-water and a bottom with constant density..

Satellite geophysics. SRTM.SRTM C.C.Tscherning, University of Copenhagen, The Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) obtained elevation data on a near- global scale to generate the most complete high-resolution digital topographic database of Earth. SRTM consisted of a specially modified radar system that flew onboard the Space Shuttle Endeavour during an 11-day mission in February of 2000.
