Abstract
This paper describes the geometrical characteristics of the platforms and instruments of the A-train constellation. We also provide a brief description of the A-Train data subsets that have been collocated to exploit the synergistic potential of the various instruments. Finally we present some sample image products from our web-based Giovanni tool which allows users to display, compare and download the various collocated data subsets.
