Measurements and Applications
Pushbroom scanning spectrometer to provide relatively high spatial resolution CO2, CH4 and NO2 observations in support of estimating anthropogenic emissions of CO2 and CH4 in Copernicus. In addition, high quality NO2 and solar-induced fluorescence will be operationally delivered.

Waveband
For CO2: TOA radiance measures in NIR (747-773nm), SWIR1 (1590-1675nm), SWIR2 (1990-2095nm). For NO2: VIS (405-490nm)
| VIS (~0.40 µm - ~0.75 µm) |
| NIR (~0.75 µm - ~1.3 µm) |
| SWIR (~1.3 µm - ~3.0 µm) |
