  1. Argos Data Collection System

  2. Mission Statement • The Argos Data Collection System (DCS) is a global system for locating, collecting, and transmitting data from remote fixed and moving transmitters via U.S. Government-owned polar-orbiting satellites equipped with the French Argos instrument. • The primary mission of Argos DCS is the location and collection of data to support environmental applications and those applications which protect the environment.

  3. International Cooperation • NOAA and CNES cooperative program since early 1970’s • Developed to fill technological need for scientific data retrieval. • Oversight by Argos Operations Committee (OPSCOM)co-chaired by NOAA and French Space Agency (CNES). • NOAA responsible for: Spacecraft integration, launch and operation Providing access to global pre-processed data stream • CNES responsible for: Providing Argos instrument Operation of Argos data processing system
