The Ozone Mapping and Profiler Suite (OMPS) is a new generation space-based system designed to monitor global changes in stratospheric ozone. The suite consists of three separate sensors and a Main Electrical Box (MEB). The OMPS suite has recently been completed and delivered, after a successful interagency review process, to the NPP prime contractor, Northrop Grumman Aerospace Systems (NGAS). It has since been integrated to the NPP spacecraft. This poster will summarize the expected performance of OMPS as determined from the pre-launch test data and analysis. The poster will also describe how potential performance deficiencies may be corrected with algorithm modifications, as well as potential improvements for the next flight model.
