Utilizing the VIIRS sensor on Suomi-NPP and JPSS, NASA scientists can measure the sulfur dioxide (SO2) concentration from the eruption. SO2 is often used as a proxy for the location of volcanic ash. High concentrations of SO2 can also be hazardous to human health and air travel.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN STYLE="font-weight:bold;">Suggested Use:</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>Blue/green to red/yellow colors indicate higher sulfur dioxide (SO2) concentrations</SPAN></P><P><SPAN STYLE="font-weight:bold;">Satellite/Sensor:</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>Suomi-NPP and JPSS1 Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS)</SPAN></P><P><SPAN STYLE="font-weight:bold;">Resolution:</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>750 meters</SPAN></P><P><SPAN STYLE="font-weight:bold;">Credits:</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>NASA's Direct Readout Laboratory (DRL)</SPAN></P><P><SPAN STYLE="font-weight:bold;">Esri REST Endpoint:</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>See URL Section on right side of page</SPAN></P><P><SPAN STYLE="font-weight:bold;">WMS Endpoint</SPAN></P><P><A href="https://maps.disasters.nasa.gov:443/ags04/services/tonga_volcano_tsunami_202201/viirs_so2/ImageServer/WMSServer" STYLE="text-decoration:underline;"><SPAN>https://maps.disasters.nasa.gov/ags04/services/tonga_volcano_tsunami_202201/viirs_so2/ImageServer/WMSServer</SPAN></A></P><P><SPAN STYLE="font-weight:bold;">Data Download:</SPAN></P><P><A href="https://maps.disasters.nasa.gov:443/download/gis_products/event_specific/2022/tonga_volcano_tsunami_202201/viirs/" STYLE="text-decoration:underline;"><SPAN>https://maps.disasters.nasa.gov/download/gis_products/event_specific/2022/tonga_volcano_tsunami_202201/viirs/</SPAN></A></P></DIV></DIV></DIV> |
