Sufficient knowledge of the pointing is essential for analyses of limb emission measurements.The scientific retrieval processor for MIPAS on ENVISAT operated at IMK allows the retrieval of pointing information in terms of tangent altitudes along with temperature.The retrieved tangent altitudes are independent of systematic offsets in the engineerin
