    The Seasat low-rate data system processes raw satellite telemetry into geophysical data products. It also offers a searchable catalog of this valuable satellite data.

    Area of Science:

    • Earth Science
    • Space Science
    • Data Processing

    Background:

    • The Seasat mission generated a large volume of raw telemetry data.
    • Processing this data required specialized systems for calibration and correction.
    • A centralized system was needed to manage and access the processed data.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe the Seasat low-rate data system.
    • To outline its role in transforming raw telemetry into geophysical products.
    • To highlight its function as a data catalog.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized a distributed, non-real-time magnetic tape system.
    • Applied calibrations, corrections, and conversions to telemetry data.
    • Developed a remotely accessible catalog for satellite data.
