MOP02J_109 is the Measurements Of Pollution In The Troposphere (MOPITT) Beta Derived Carbon Monoxide (CO) (Near and Thermal Infrared Radiances) version 109 product. It consists of the geo-located, retrieved carbon monoxide profiles and total column amounts for carbon monoxide. Ancillary data concerning surface properties and cloud conditions at the locations of the retrieved parameters are also included. An estimated error accompanies each retrieval. Version 109 products are beta versions of version 9 products; they are unvalidated beta products subject to recalibration. Data collection for this product is ongoing.

MOPITT was successfully launched into sun-synchronous polar orbit aboard Terra, NASA's first Earth Observing System spacecraft, on December 18, 1999. The MOPITT instrument was constructed by a consortium of Canadian companies and funded by the Space Science Division of the Canadian Space Agency.
