PACE OCI Level-3 Global Mapped Inherent Optical Properties (IOP) Data, version 3.1

Published by OBPG;NASA/GSFC/SED/ESD/GCDC/OB.DAAC | National Aeronautics and Space Administration | Catalog Last Checked: May 26, 2026 at 05:24 PM | Dataset Last Updated: May 18, 2026
The primary sensor aboard the PACE spacecraft is the Ocean Color Instrument (OCI). It is a highly advanced optical spectrometer that will be used to measure properties of light over portions of the electromagnetic spectrum. It will enable continuous measurement of light at finer wavelength resolution than previous NASA satellite sensors, extending key system ocean color data records for climate studies.
