Description
Total ozone Level 2 (PROVISIONAL) files provide ozone information at TEMPO’s native spatial resolution, ~10 km^2 at the center of the Field of Regard(FOR), for individual granules. Each granule covers the entire North-South TEMPO FOR but only a portion of the East-West FOR. The files are provided in netCDF4 format, and contain information on total column ozone and some auxiliary derived and ancillary input parameters including N-values, effective Lambertian scene-reflectivity, UV aerosol index, SO2 index, effective cloud fraction, effective cloud pressure, radiative cloud fraction, ozone below clouds, terrain height, geolocation, solar and satellite viewing angles, and quality flags. The retrieval is based on the OMI TOMS V8.5 algorithm adapted for TEMPO. These data reached provisional validation on December 9, 2024.
