The most energetic tropical systems, such as the cloud clusters of the ITCZ, the monsoon systems and the tropical cyclones, extend over hundreds of kilometers. Hence, a ground resolution of about 10 km is adequate for these observations. Megha-Tropiques, with its unique combination of scientific payloads and its special near-equatorial orbit (offering improved data sampling of the ITCZ), is expected to provide valuable data for climate research. - Note: Megha means âcloudâ in Sanskrit; Tropiques is the French word for âtropics.â"^^xsd:string; dcterms:source "https://directory.eoportal.org/web/eoportal/satellite-missions/m/megha-tropiques"; dcterms:type "spacecraft"; dbpprop:launchDate "2011-10-12T00:00:00"^^xsd:dateTime; dbpprop:deactivated "2015-01-01T00:00:00"^^xsd:dateTime; gcis:hasInstrument <http://52.38.26.42:8080/instrument/microwave-analysis-and-detection-of-rain-and-atmospheric-structures>; gcis:hasInstrument <http://52.38.26.42:8080/instrument/radio-occultation-sensor-for-atmosphere>; gcis:hasInstrument <http://52.38.26.42:8080/instrument/sondeur-atmospherique-du-profildhumidite-intertropicale-par-radiometrie>; gcis:hasInstrument <http://52.38.26.42:8080/instrument/scanner-for-earths-radiation-budget>; a gcis:Platform . ## This entity was produced by an organization: <http://52.38.26.42:8080/platform/megha-tropiques> prov:qualifiedAttribution [ a prov:Attribution; prov:agent <http://52.38.26.42:8080/organization/indian-space-research-organisation>; prov:hadRole <http://52.38.26.42:8080/role_type/contributor>; ] . ## This entity was produced by an organization: <http://52.38.26.42:8080/platform/megha-tropiques> prov:qualifiedAttribution [ a prov:Attribution; prov:agent <http://52.38.26.42:8080/organization/centre-national-d-etudes-spatiales>; prov:hadRole <http://52.38.26.42:8080/role_type/contributor>; ] . ## Also known as: <http://52.38.26.42:8080/platform/megha-tropiques> skos:altLabel "375"; gcis:hasURL "http://database.eohandbook.com/database/missionsummary.aspx?missionID=375"; skos:exactMatch <http://52.38.26.42:8080/lexicon/ceos/missionID/375> . <http://52.38.26.42:8080/platform/megha-tropiques> skos:altLabel "MEGHA-TROPIQUES"; gcis:hasURL "http://database.eohandbook.com/database/missionindex.aspx#M"; skos:exactMatch <http://52.38.26.42:8080/lexicon/ceos/Mission/MEGHA-TROPIQUES> . <http://52.38.26.42:8080/platform/megha-tropiques> skos:altLabel "Megha-Tropiques"; gcis:hasURL "http://wikipedia.org/wiki/Megha-Tropiques"; owl:sameAs <http://dbpedia.org/resource/Megha-Tropiques>; skos:exactMatch <http://52.38.26.42:8080/lexicon/dbpedia/resource/Megha-Tropiques> .
