Description

Total ozone Level 3 (PROVISIONAL) files provide ozone information on a regular grid covering the TEMPO field of regard for nominal TEMPO observations. Level 3 files are derived by combining information from all Level 2 files constituting a TEMPO East-West scan cycle. The files are provided in netCDF4 format, and contain information on total column ozone and some auxiliary derived and ancillary input parameters including effective cloud fraction, effective cloud pressure, radiative cloud fraction, SO2 index, and terrain pressure. The re-gridding algorithm uses an area-weighted approach. These data reached provisional validation on December 9, 2024.
