The TOPEX/Poseidon satellite was a joint venture of NASA and the French space agency, CNES. It measured ocean surface topography to an accuracy of 4.2 centimeters, unprecedented at the time, from its launch in 1992 to the end of its mission in 2006.
The Ocean Topography Experiment (TOPEX)/Poseidon has provided nearly continuous measurements of sea level accurate to 5 cm or better for the last two years. This unprecedented level of accuracy has been accomplished through improvements to the orbit determination, ionosphere correction, and wet troposphere correction over previous missions.
TOPEX/Poseidon used the global perspective available only from space to develop maps of ocean topography showing the barely perceptible hills and valleys of the sea surface. This effort significantly expanded the knowledge developed from shipboard research, which is limited to specific locations.
While a 3-year prime mission was planned, with a 5-year store of expendables, TOPEX/Poseidon delivered an astonishing 13+ years of data from orbit. The mission ended in January 2006. In those 13 years, it: Measured sea levels with unprecedented accuracy to better than 5 cm
