The SATCROSS project is a feasibility study of a space mission for the observation of tropospheric water vapour, based on an active differential measurement technique (NDSA: Normalized Differential Spectral Attenuation) and on a train of co-rotating LEO satellites.
Goal: providing an estimation of 2-D (3-D) water vapour fields on vertical sections of the troposphere on a continuous time basis.
