OMPS  

Definition

  • The advanced Ozone Mapping and Profiler Suite (OMPS) tracks the health of the ozone layer and measures the concentration of ozone in the Earth's atmosphere. OMPS consists of three spectrometers: a downward-looking nadir mapper, nadir profiler and limb profiler. The entire OMPS suite, OMPS-Nadir (OMPS-N) and OMPS-Limb (OMPS-L), currently fly on board the Suomi NPP spacecraft and are scheduled to fly on the JPSS-2 satellite mission. OMPS-N will fly on the JPSS-1 satellite mission and will be used to generate total column ozone measurements. Mass: 68 kilograms Average Power: 108 Watts Vendor: Ball Aerospace and Technologies Corp. (BATC), Boulder, CO OMS Sensor Leads: Scott Janz (Goddard Space Flight Center), Glen Jaross (SSAI) Purpose: To measure the global distribution of O3 (Ozone) in the stratosphere More Information: https://www.jpss.noaa.gov/omps.html Group: Instrument_Details Entry_ID: OMPS Group: Instrument_Identification Instrument_Category: Earth Remote Sensing Instruments Instrument_Class: Passive Remote Sensing Instrument_Type: Spectrometers/Radiometers Instrument_Subtype: Spectrometers Short_Name: OMPS Long_Name: Ozone Mapping and Profiler Suite End_Group Group: Associated_Platforms Short_Name: JPSS-1 End_Group Group: Spectral_Frequency_Information Spectral_Frequency_Coverage_Range: 300 nm - 380 nm Spectral_Frequency_Resolution: 1 nm End_Group Group: Spectral_Frequency_Information Spectral_Frequency_Coverage_Range: 250 nm - 310 nm Spectral_Frequency_Resolution: 1.19 nm End_Group Online_Resource: https://www.jpss.noaa.gov/omps.html Creation_Date: 2009-03-17 Group: Instrument_Logistics Instrument_Owner: USA/NASA Instrument_Owner: USA/NOAA End_Group End_Group (en)
