IASI Level 1C - Reduced Spectral Samples - Metop - Global

Description

This product covers the reduced spectral samples (500 channels). The main objective of the Infrared Atmospheric Sounding Interferometer (IASI) is to provide high resolution atmospheric emission spectra to derive temperature and humidity profiles with high spectral and vertical resolution and accuracy. Additionally it is used for the determination of trace gases such as ozone, nitrous oxide, carbon dioxide and methane, as well as land and sea surface temperature, emissivity and cloud properties. The IASI L1c product contains infra-red radiance spectra at 0.5cm-1 resolution. The EUMETCast product has for each sounder pixel 8461 spectral samples covering the range between 645.0 cm-1 and 2760 cm-1. There is also a full spectral product available. NOTE: From 15/10/2021, Metop-A IASI data are no longer available.
