Abstract It is proposed to establish a system of three geostationary satellites in order to obtain a maximum of information by combining space-based topside sounding, beacon techniques (including absorption), in-situ observations, airglow and solar uv/euv radiation measurements with the data obtained by ground-based measurements. These latter shall contain the results of vertical and oblique sounding, absorption measurements and terrestrial airglow observations, to be all transmitted from ground to the satellites. The characteristics needed for such global network are discussed.
