    • OCO-2 Level 2 spatially ordered geolocated retrievals screened using the IMAP-DOAS Preprocessor (IDP) Retrospective Processing V11.2r (OCO2_L2_IMAPDOAS) at GES DISC

    Metadata Updated: August 21, 2025

    Version 11.2r is the current version of the data set. Older versions will no longer be available and are superseded by Version 11.2r.The Orbiting Carbon Observatory is the first NASA mission designed to collect space-based measurements of atmospheric carbon dioxide with the precision, resolution, and coverage needed to characterize the processes controlling its buildup in the atmosphere. The OCO-2 project uses the LEOStar-2 spacecraft that carries a single instrument. It incorporates three high-resolution spectrometers that make coincident measurements of reflected sunlight in the near-infrared CO2 near 1.61 and 2.06 micrometers and in molecular oxygen (O2) A-Band at 0.76 micrometers. This collection encompass the output from the IMAP-DOAS preprocessor, which is used for both screening of the official XCO2 product as well as for the retrieval of Solar-Induced Fluorescence from the 0.76 micrometer O2 A-band. The IMAP-DOAS preprocessor, just as the ABO2 cloud screen, is implemented in the operational OCO-2 processing pipeline.
