Coordinated Science Campaigns

Throughout the CASSIOPE/Swarm-E mission, coordinated science campaigns have been conducted on a regular basis. These campaigns included operation of specific instruments in particular modes, often at prescribed times or locations, in conjunction with another space- or ground-based resource. The table below lists the coordinated science campaigns executed during the Routine Operations phase of the mission.

The e-POP data set may be filtered for quick download of these campaign data by using the e-POP Data Explorer Web App (eDEx), at edex.phys.ucalgary.ca .
