OMPS/NPP L3 NM PCA Sulfur Dioxide (SO2) Total Column Daily Best Pixel Global Gridded 0.25 degree x 0.25 degree V1 (OMPS_NPP_NMSO2_PCA_L3_DAILY) at GES DISC

Published by NASA/GSFC/SED/ESD/TISL/GESDISC | National Aeronautics and Space Administration | Metadata Last Checked: February 21, 2026 | Last Modified: 2026-02-17
The OMPS-NPP L3 NM PCA Sulfur Dioxide (SO2) Total Column Daily Best Pixel Global Gridded 0.25 x 0.25 degree product contains sulfur dioxide amounts gridded at 0.25 x 0.25 degree resolution using the 'best' pixel method. Data are measured by the Ozone Mapping and Profiling Suite (OMPS) Nadir-Mapper (NM) sensor on the Suomi-NPP satellite. The product is based on the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center principal component analysis (PCA) spectral fitting algorithm (Li et al., 2013, 2017).Each granule contains data from the daylight portion of each orbit measured for a full day. Spatial coverage is global (-90 to 90 degrees latitude), and the spatial resolution is 0.25 x 0.25 degrees.The files are written using netCDF version 4.
