D-B_I.6.1.1 S5P tropospheric NO2 and XCO: data interface and data quality
D-B_I.6.1.1 S5P tropospheric NO2 and XCO: data interface and data quality
Description
The PDF document about the NO2 part describes the data format of the TROPOMI/NO2 IUP-UB product, the interface for use in ITMS and provides some examples of the data. The description given here is for the standard product V1.0, which is the baseline for the development of a high-resolution data product for Germany and Europe within the ITMS project. The validation and assessment of the data quality with regard to its suitability for ITMS, including error characterisation and validation will be provided together with the first version of the dedicated ITMS NO2 product when it becomes available. Here, we present results of two sensitivity studies motivating the improvements of the product which are being work on in the ITMS project.
The PDF-document about the XCO part describes the data format of the TROPOMI/WFMD XCO product, the interface for use in ITMS and provides the validation and assessment of the data quality with regard to its suitability for ITMS, including error characterisation and test data for Module M. The data analysis provides realistic estimates for random and systematic errors as well as for the uncertainties of the data product and relates these figures of merit to the mission and user requirements. The TROPOMI/WFMD v1.8 product is currently available from the beginning of 2018 up to April 2024 on the website of the University of Bremen.
