The Cross-track Infrared and Microwave Sounder Suite (CrIMSS) will be flying on the National Polar-orbiting Operational Environmental Satellite System (NPOESS) and its Preparatory Project (NPP) satellites. It is designed to produce three Environmental Data Records (EDR) products, i.e., the Atmospheric Vertical Temperature Profiles (AVTP), Atmospheric Vertical Moisture Profiles (AVMP) and Atmospheric Pressure Profiles. In this paper we present how the CrIMSS EDR retrieval algorithm was tested using the proxy data and the results.
