Abstract
On-orbit data from the surface charge monitor payload of GSAT-2 spacecraft has been briefly summarized in this paper. The payload, comprising four detector electronics heads and a central electronics module, has been operating continuously since May 14, 2003, except when switched OFF during the period from August 14, 2003 to September 12, 2003. The data correlated well with the GOES-10/12 data on Geomagnetic activity.
