The purpose of the project is to set up an integrated
satellite altimetry data base (ISADB), which would include the results
of altimetry measurements conducted by the Russian GEOIK geodetic satellites
and by GEOSAT, ERS-1, ERS-2 and TOPEX/POSEIDON during the period starting
from 1985 until present. ISADB would also include supplementary information
necessary for the processing and interpretation of experimental data. The
software, besides ts standard DBMS functions, would also carry out the
functions of data processing and data visualization for the problem-oriented study
of the sea level changes of the world ocean and large inland basins and
for the determination of the detailed characteristics of the gravity field
of the Earth.
The final ISADB version shall be loaded on the WWW server
of Geophysical Center and thus will be available in the Internet. We believe
that the range of application of the data base shall be sufficiently wide,
because the altimetry measurements, carried out by the GEOIK satellites,
have not been available to the wide scientific community before.
