  4. Earth Observation Projects • GCOM-W1 “SHIZUKU” is in operation after one year since the launch on May 18 2012. • Forthcoming satellites/Sensors dedicated to monitor the Earth globally: • ALOS-2 will be launched in JFY 2013. • GPM/DPR will be launched in JFY2014. • GCOM-C1 will be launched in JFY2015. • EarthCARE/CPR will be launched in JFY2015. • ALOS-3 will be launched in JFY 2016.

  5. Global Change Observation Mission • GCOM is to construct and verify EO system enabling global earth observations producing effective parameters elucidating climate change, water cycle. • GCOM is consisted with 2 satellite series (GCOM-W and C), 3 generations to perform consistent and sustained global observations for 13 years.
