The Advanced Technology Microwave Sounder (ATMS) on board Suomi
NPP, NOAA-20, and NOAA-21 is a 22 channel microwave sounder that provides continuous
cross-track scanning in an 824 km sun-synchronous orbit. This Temperature Data Record
(TDR) from ATMS provides Level 1b geolocated antenna temperatures, calibration data
counts, and ephemeris data produced from ATMS Raw Data Records (RDR). The ATMS TDR is
used as input to produce ATMS Sensor Data Records (SDR). ATMS TDR data obtained from
the NOAA Comprehensive Large Array-Data Stewardship System (CLASS) are distributed as
aggregated 8 minute files consisting of 15 granules in the Hierarchical Data Format
v.5 (HDF5) with metadata attributes included.
