  - description: "EnviSat is an Earth observation mission of ESA (European Space Agency). The overall objectives are: studying and monitoring the Earth's environment on various scales, from local through regional to global. Monitoring and management of the Earth's resources, both renewable and nonrenewable. Continuation and improvement of the services provided to the worldwide operational meteorological community. Contribution to the understanding of the structure and dynamics of the Earth's crust and interior. Major disciplines covered: meteorology, climatology, environment, atmospheric chemistry, vegetation, hydrology, land use, ocean and ice processes."
