This Level-2G daily global gridded product OMDOAO3G is based on the pixel level OMI Level-2 DOAO3 product OMDOAO3. This Level-2G global total column ozone product is derived from OMDOAO3 which is based on the Differential Absorption Spectroscopy (DOAS) fitting technique that essentially uses the OMI visible radiance values between 331.1 and 336.1 nm. In addition to the total ozone column this product also contains some auxiliary derived and ancillary input parameters, e.g. ozone slant column density, ozone ghost column density, etc. The short name for this Level-2 OMI ozone product is OMDOAO3G and the lead algorithm scientist for this product and for OMDOAO3 (the data source of OMDOAO3G) is Dr. Pepijn Veefkind from KNMI.

This Level-2G daily global gridded product OMTO3G is based on the pixel level OMI Level-2 Total Ozone Product OMTO3. The OMTO3 product is from the enhanced TOMS version-8 algorithm that essentially uses the ultraviolet radiance data at 317.5 and 331.2 nm. The OMTO3G data product is a special Level-2 Global Gridded Product where pixel level data are binned into 0.25x0.25 degree global grids. It contains the data for all L2 scenes that have observation time between UTC times of 00:00:00 and 23:59:59.9999. All data pixels that fall in a grid box are saved Without Averaging. Scientists can apply a data filtering scheme of their choice and create new gridded products. The OMTO3G data product contains almost all parameters that are contained in the OMTO3. For example, in addition to the total column ozone it also contains UV aerosol index, cloud fraction, cloud pressure, terrain height, geolocation, solar and satellite viewing angles, and quality flags. The OMTO3G files are stored in the version 5 EOS Hierarchical Data Format (HDF-EOS5). Each file contains daily data from approximately 15 orbits. The maximum file size for the OMTO3G data product is about 150 Mbytes.

The Aura Ozone Monitoring Instrument (OMI) Level-2 Total Column Ozone Data Product OMTO3 (Version 003) is available from the NASA Goddard Earth Sciences Data and Information Services Center (GES DISC) for the public access. OMI provides two Level-2 (OMTO3 and OMDOAO3) total column ozone products at pixel resolution (13 x 24 km at nadir) that are based on two different algorithms. This level-2 global total column ozone product (OMTO3) is based on the enhanced TOMS version-8 algorithm that essentially uses the ultraviolet radiance data at 317.5 and 331.2 nm. OMI hyper-spectral measurements help in the corrections for the factors that induce uncertainty in ozone retrievals (e.g., cloud and aerosol, sea-glint effects, profile shape sensitivity, SO2 and other trace gas contamination). In addition to the total ozone values this product also contains some auxiliary derived and ancillary input parameters including N-values, effective Lambertian scene-reflectivity, UV aerosol index, SO2 index, cloud fraction, cloud pressure, ozone below clouds, terrain height, geolocation, solar and satellite viewing angles, and quality flags. The shortname for this Level-2 OMI total column ozone product is OMTO3. The algorithm lead for this product is NASA OMI scientist Dr. Pawan K. Bhartia. The OMTO3 files are stored in the version 5 EOS Hierarchical Data Format (HDF-EOS5). Each file contains data from the day lit portion of an orbit (~53 minutes). There are approximately 14 orbits per day. The maximum file size for the OMTO3 data product is approximately 35 MB.

The second release of Aura Ozone Monitoring Instrument (OMI) Version 003 OMI/Aura Level-2 Total Column Ozone Data Product OMDOAO3 is now available from the NASA Goddard Earth Sciences Data and Information Services Center (GES DISC) for the public access. The data were processed in late 2011 using Algorithm or PGE version 1.2.3 and released in March 2012. OMI provides two total column ozone products based on two different algorithms. This level-2 global total column ozone product at the pixel resolution (13x24 km at nadir), is based on the Differential Absorption Spectroscopy (DOAS) fitting technique that essentially uses the OMI UV radiance values between 331.1 and 336.1 nm.
