The feasibility of employing satellite to satellite tracking in lieu of ground based tracking to satisfy the orbit determination requirements of the GEOS-C mission was studied. It is shown that with proper estimation procedures it is possible to obtain from S.S.T. data a GEOS-C orbit whose altitude error averages about 1 meter. The usefulness of this type for geopotential recovery is also indicated. (Author)
