SCIAMACHY Validation Workshop Objectives and introduction Ankie Piters, KNMI SCIAMACHY Validation Workshop, 6 -8 December 2004, Bremen 1
Why this meeting? Two reasons: 1. Status on currently available products: – – What can we say about current quality/accuracy? What information is still missing? 2. Assure manpower for continuation of validation: – – Convince you that your efforts are needed Offer you a structure and support (not financial ) SCIAMACHY Validation Workshop, 6 -8 December 2004, Bremen 2
Why should you? Validation of SCIAMACHY has been difficult, Products do not yet meet our expectations, improvement is rather slow, and new satellite instruments are coming up. But … • SCIAMACHY will continue performing measurements for ~5 -10 years • Products with good scientific value will come out • We will have 5 -10 years of global data with known and good quality in the end You can benefit from this dataset, especially in combination with other ENVISAT and EOS-AURA instruments. But we need your help! SCIAMACHY Validation Workshop, 6 -8 December 2004, Bremen 3
What can you do? Funding for validation is very limited. In spite of this, we ask you to: • Use the data in scientific applications, • critically assess their quality for your purpose, and • give feedback to product developers. In addition we should all: • Convince funding agencies, as individuals and as a group, that validation has not finished, it only just started SCIAMACHY Validation Workshop, 6 -8 December 2004, Bremen 4
This workshop Today: • Information on status – SCIAMACHY – Ground processor – Products: operational and scientific • Time for specific questions: after each talk • General discussion (40 minutes) Tomorrow-morning: • Final presentations of GSVT SCIAMACHY Validation Workshop, 6 -8 December 2004, Bremen 5
German validation effort • A lot of work has been done by German community • But: validation is not finished, it just started • A lot of work still has to be done by all involved countries, both on: – Product development and improvement – Quality assessment SCIAMACHY Validation Workshop, 6 -8 December 2004, Bremen 6
