Smoke from the Canadian forest fires traveling eastward towards Greenland and Iceland as seen by the AIRS instrument onboard the #Aqua #NASA satellite. These images show carbon monoxide at the 500 hPa level. Units are part per billion by volume.

People in #gischat #EarthObservation and #RemoteSensing what are the best satellite products to follow smoke likes this besides the above. Aerosol depth perhaps?

Following up on the previous post, here are the three #sentinel5p #TROPOMI UV aerosol indices from an 17th of August acquisition.

Workflow:
- Get data via Copernicus SciHub (pre-operations)
- Open NetCDF in SNAP, subset, reproject, export as #GeoTIFF
- Open in #QGIS add basemap, symbolize and export
