EOEP implements Earth Explorer core and opportunity missions and also funds mission exploitation, instrument predevelopment and support for market development. Earth explorer missions such as Cryosat, the Gravity field and steady state Ocean Circulation Explorer(GOCE), the Soil Moisture Ocean Salinity(SMOS) and the initiation of full implementation of the Atmospheric Dynamics Mission(ADM-Aeolus) are major achievements of the first phase of this programme. The second phase, EOEP-2, will give the Earth Science community and industry a stable outlook in which one new mission will be launched every year. It will also cover preparation of Earth Watch missions. 1, record 1, English, - Earth%20Observation%20Envelope%20Programme

L'EOEP met en œuvre les missions d'exploration de la Terre de l'ESA dites de base ou de circonstance, finance l'exploitation de ces missions et le prédéveloppement d'instruments, et apporte un soutien au développement du marché. La première phase de ce programme a permis d'obtenir de grands succès avec la mise au point de missions d'exploration de la Terre comme Cryosat, la Mission Gravité et circulation océanique en régime stable (GOCE), la Mission d'étude de l'humidité des sols et de la salinité des océans (SMOS) et le début de la mise en œuvre complète de la Mission d'étude de dynamique de l'atmosphère (ADM-Aeolus). La deuxième phase du programme (EOEP-2) offrira à la recherche en sciences de la Terre comme à l'industrie un horizon stable, avec le lancement d'une nouvelle mission chaque année. Ce programme permettra également de préparer des missions de surveillance de la Terre. 1, record 1, French, - Programme%2Denveloppe%20d%27observation%20de%20la%20Terre

The initiation of the EARSEC programme saw the development of sophisticated airborne SAR and electro-optical sensors, requiring equally sophisticated software to provide end-users with reliable products. The SAR processors were seen as an opportunity to develop software that could easily be used by regular, non-specialist users, whilst retaining great flexibility to allow detailed tuning and configuration by more scientifically expert investigators. This dual role has been adopted throughout the EARSEC processing environment allowing a wide user base to be satisfied. 3, record 3, English, - European%20Airborne%20Remote%20Sensing%20Capability
