GOME-Ozone-Fast-Delivery-and-value-added-products-Validation-Document.pdf
This document gives an overview of the results of the validation of the ERS GOME Fast Delivery level 2 data (vertical ozone columns). Validation is an important part of the the GOFAP project and involves the assessing of the quality of the Fast Delivery vertical ozone columns by independent means and provides an estimate of the random and systematic errors.

Global-Ozone-Monitoring-Experiment-(GOME)-Interim-Science-Report.pdf
To obtain final confidence in the scientific validity of the GOME for its inclusion in the ERS-2 mission, in 1993 the Agency asked a group of scientists to review the scientific objectives and capabilities of the GOME. This 'historical' report covers the scientific rationale and objectives of GOME and assesses its capabilities.

RA-Characterisation-Data.pdf
This document can be regarded as a first issue of the long-awaited RA Characterisation Database. It contains values for all parameters which have been requested, except for some special cases which will be explained later. It contains many other parameters as well. For example it also contains all the parameters used in the LRDPF (and referred to in ER-RP-DSF-SY-0007) except for the parameters forseen to be updated frequently, such as the barometric pressure field (which will come from ECMWF).
