Abstract

GOSAT ( Ibuki ) was successfully launched on January 23, 2009 and has been operating nominally. NIES GOSAT DHF ( Data Handling Facility) , receiving GOSAT Level 1 data of TANSO-FTS ( Fourier Transform Spectrometer) and TANSO-CAI ( Cloud and Aerosol Imager), started checking them and generating Higher Level Products of GOSAT. The Products include Level 1B and 1B+ of CAI and Level 2 ( CO₂ and CH₄ column amount from SWIR and TIR from FTS and , cloud flag, aerosol and cloud properties from CAI).
