Recent Improvements to Suomi NPP Ozone Mapper Profiler Suite Nadir Mapper Sensor Data Records
The Ozone Mapping and Profiler Suite (OMPS) is carried onboard on the Suomi National Polar-orbiting Partnership satellite which was launched on October 28, 2011. Since its launch, many changes in radiometric and spectrometric calibration have been made to improve the OMPS sensor data quality. The most challenging issue is to correct an unexpected variation of the in-flight wavelength scale in the OMPS Nadir Mapper (NM) spectrometer. Validation of the NM earth viewing albedo estimates of 2% to 5% wavelength-dependent errors across the sensor spatial instantaneous field of views (IFOVs). The root cause attributes these errors to a large variation in the wavelength registration for each of the NM charge-coupled device earth view pixels. Recent calibration change has significantly improved the total wavelength knowledge accuracy, and as a result the NM wavelength-dependent albedo uncertainty is reduced below the requirement of 2% for most of the channels across all of the spatial IFOVs.
