Testing and integration of JPSS Ozone Mapping and Profiler Suite (OMPS) algorithms using the Algorithm Development Library (ADL)

The Ozone Mapping and Profiler Suite (OMPS) consisting of three instruments, a Nadir Mapper (OMPS-NM), a Nadir Profiler (OMPS-NP) and a limb Profiler (OMPS-LP) was launched aboard Suomi NPP satellite in 2011. The instrument is also planned to be aboard JPSS satellite. The data from this instrument is processed at Interface Data Processing Segment (IDPS) built by Raytheon. The main products from OMPS include Total Column Ozone and Ozone Profile. Algorithm Development Library (ADL) framework mimics IDPS system and is used to test, troubleshoot and integrate algorithm updates. The algorithm integration team (AIT) at NOAA STAR is tasked to integrate the algorithm updates in ADL that could be simply plugged in the operational system. In this paper we will present the process in detail and will discuss the results of the latest update of V8 algorithm from V6 algorithm for OMPS Nadir Profile instrument.
