Total Ozone Mapping Spectrometer (TOMS) measurements from Earth Probe (1996-2005)

The Total Ozone Mapping Spectrometer (TOMS) is an instrument built and operated by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). The instrument uses backscattered ultraviolet radiance to infer total column ozone measurements. The dataset consists of daily gridded averages of total ozone covering the entire globe, in the form of images, from NASA NIMBUS 7, Meteor-3, Earth Probe and ADEOS satellites. Data is from 1978 to 2006. The Ozone Monitoring Instrument (OMI) on the AURA spacecraft, OMI data of ozone are now available for the entire OMI mission. In addition to ozone data, OMI data for aerosol and reflectivity are available. These datasets are public.

Statement: Total Ozone Mapping Spectrometer (TOMS) data were mirrored from GSFC NASA until saturday December 2, 2006, when contact with Earth Probe was lost.

Ozone Monitoring Instrument (OMI) data are continuously being mirrored at the BADC from NASA (since 2004).
