The OMPS-NPP L2 NM Aerosol Index swath orbital product provides aerosol index values from the Ozone Mapping and Profiling Suite (OMPS) Nadir-Mapper (NM) instrument on the Suomi-NPP satellite. This is now the official NASA aerosol index product, replacing the aerosol index found in the OMPS-NPP L2 NM Total Ozone product. The aerosol index is derived from normalized radiances using 2 wavelength pairs at 340 and 378.5 nm. Additionally, this data product contains measurements of normalized radiances, reflectivity, cloud fraction, reflectivity, and other ancillary variables. Each granule contains data from the daylight portion of each orbit measured for a full day. Spatial coverage is global (-90 to 90 degrees latitude), and there are about 14.5 orbits per day, each has typically 400 swaths. The swath width of the NM is about 2800 km with 36 scenes, or pixels, with a footprint size of 50 km x 50 km at nadir. The data are written using the Hierarchical Data Format Version 5 or HDF5.

The Version 4.0 Aura Ozone Monitoring Instrument (OMI) Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2) Standard Product (OMNO2) is now available from the NASA Goddard Earth Sciences Data and Information Services Center. The major V4.0 updates include: (1) use of a new daily and OMI field of view specific geometry dependent surface Lambertian Equivalent Reflectivity (GLER) product in both NO2 and cloud retrievals; (2) use of improved cloud parameters (effective cloud fraction and cloud optical centroid pressure) from a new cloud algorithm (OMCDO2N) that are retrieved consistently with NO2 using a new algorithm for O2-O2 slant column data and the GLER product for terrain reflectivity; (3) use of a more accurate terrain pressure calculated using OMI ground pixel-averaged terrain height and monthly mean GMI terrain pressure; and (4) improved treatment over snow/ice surfaces by using the concept of scene LER and scene pressure. The details can be found in the updated OMNO2 readme document (see Documentation). The OMNO2 product contains slant column NO2 (total amount along the average optical path from the sun into the atmosphere, and then toward the satellite), the total NO2 vertical column density (VCD), the stratospheric and tropospheric VCDs, air mass factors (AMFs), scattering weights for calculation of AMFs, and other ancillary data. The short name for the Level-2 swath type column NO2 products is OMNO2. Other OMNO2-associated NO2 products include the Level-2 gridded column product, OMNO2G, and the Level-3 gridded column product, OMNO2d. The OMNO2 files are stored in version 5 EOS Hierarchical Data Format (HDF-EOS5). Each Level-2 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 OMNO2 is ~24 MB.

As part of the NASA's Making Earth System Data Records for Use in Research Environments (MEaSUREs) program, this projects describes a multi-decadal Fundamental Climate Data Record (FCDR) of calibrated radiances as well as an Earth System Data Record (ESDR) of aerosol properties over the continents derived from a 32-year record of satellite near-UV observations by three sensors. The OMI/Aura Near UV (version 1) Aerosol Index, Optical Depth and Single Scattering Albedo data product consists of aerosol absorption optical depth, aerosol optical depth, aerosol single scattering albedo, cloud fraction, cloud optical depth, refractive index, radiance, reflectivity and residue at approximately 13x24km. This product also contains ancillary data for ocean corrected surface albedo and terrain pressure.

This Level-2G daily global gridded product OMAERUVG is based on the pixel level OMI Level-2 AERUV product OMAERUV. This Level-2G daily global gridded product OMAERUVG is based on the pixel level OMI Level-2 Aerosol product OMAERUV. OMAERUVG data product is a special Level-2 gridded product where pixel level products are binned into 0.25x0.25 degree global grids. It contains the data for all 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 OMAERUVG files are stored in the version 5 EOS Hierarchical Data Format (HDF-EOS5). Each file contains daily data from approximately 15 orbits mapped on the Global 0.25x0.25 deg Grids. The maximum file size for the OMAERUVG data product is about 50 Mbytes.
