The validation of IASI CO columns relies on the comparisons with direct comparison with ground-based FTIR at different NDACC and TCCON stations.
Validation of IASI MetopB and MetopC is performed using profile (NDACC stations) or column data (TCCON stations) from the station shown shown below. Results for IASI MetopA are available in previous validation reports.

The validation of IASI HNO3 columns relies on the comparisons with ground-based FTIR NDACC stations. The methodology used will be similar to Ronsmans et al., 2016. First results will be available as soon as recent HNO3 data from NDACC is available and when there is at least one year of the operational IASI HNO3 product available.
