Intercomparison measurements of the major ionospheric parameters of ion and electron density and temperature and ionic species made by direct measurement probes on the explorer (Roem.) 31 satellite are presented. Plasma density results are compared with simultaneous data from the alouette (Roem.) 2 satellite. Probe results are from the following experiments: Planar ion trap, planar electron trap, cylindrical electrostatic probes, high resolution magnetic ion mass spectrometer, planar langmuir plate, and spherical ion probe.
