The ESA's JUICE mission will provide a thorough investigation of the Jupiter system and the Galilean moons during its nominal tour, comprising flybys of Europa and Callisto, and an orbital phase about Ganymede at the end of the mission. The 3GM experiment will exploit accurate Doppler and range measurements to determine the moons' orbits and gravity fields (both static and tidal) and infer their interior structure. This paper presents the attainable accuracies of the Callisto geodesy experiment and addresses the effect of different flybys mean anomaly distribution and geometry on the estimation of the tidal Love number k2.
