Popis: The Ozone Mapping and Profiler Suite (OMPS) is the next-generation US ozone monitoring system, designed for the National Polar-orbiting Operational Environmental Satellite System (NPOESS). The first flight of an OMPS is scheduled for late 2009 on the NPOESS Preparatory Project (NPP) satellite. The OMPS is designed to replace both the NASA Total Ozone Mapping Spectrometer (TOMS) and NOAA Solar Backscatter Ultraviolet Spectrometer/2 (SBUV/2) systems. The OMPS has two instrument modules: a combined Nadir Mapper and Nadir Profiler, and a separate Limb Profiler.
