Last three months maps are available. Selectable dates are the ones for which data are released but, in some circumstances not all species are available.

MIPAS target species: H₂O, O₃, HNO₃, CH₄ and N₂O

• H₂O, O₃ and CH₄     15 - 52 km
• HNO₃                          15 - 39 km
• N₂O                             15 - 42 km

Northern emisphere and southern emisphere maps use orthographic projection.
World maps use Hammer projection.

Notes on geographical coverage

Each map is obtained using three consecutive days data (i.e. September 12 map uses data of September 10, 11 and 12 ), this is due to MIPAS global coverage of the Earth in 3 days.

Color scales are based on climatogic variation and customized by species and heights

• Grey means no data
• White means the value exceeds the scale maximum
• Black means the value is below the scale minimum

MIPAS level 2 data are provided by ESA ENVISAT Ground Segment.

Maps are created thanks to the following softwares:

• The Basic ERS & Envisat Atmospheric Toolbox (BEAT)
• Octave
• The Generic Mapping Tools (GMT)

The software for map generation has been developed by Claudio Belotti
