AI-generated Key Takeaways
-
The datasets provide high-resolution imagery of atmospheric formaldehyde (HCHO) concentrations, a key indicator of air quality.
-
Formaldehyde is an intermediate gas in the oxidation of non-methane volatile organic compounds (NMVOCs), which eventually leads to CO2.
-
Two types of data are available: near real-time (NRTI) and offline (OFFL), offering different temporal perspectives for analysis.
-
These datasets are part of the Copernicus program, a European initiative for Earth observation.

Sentinel-5P NRTI HCHO: Near Real-Time Formaldehyde
NRTI/L3_HCHO This dataset provides near real-time high-resolution imagery of atmospheric formaldehyde (HCHO) concentrations. Formaldehyde is an intermediate gas in almost all oxidation chains of non-methane volatile organic compounds (NMVOC), leading eventually to CO2. Non-Methane Volatile Organic Compounds (NMVOCs) are, together with NOx, CO and CH4, … air-quality atmosphere bira copernicus dlr esa -
Sentinel-5P OFFL HCHO: Offline Formaldehyde
OFFL/L3_HCHO This dataset provides offline high-resolution imagery of atmospheric formaldehyde (HCHO) concentrations. Formaldehyde is an intermediate gas in almost all oxidation chains of non-methane volatile organic compounds (NMVOC), leading eventually to CO2. Non-Methane Volatile Organic Compounds (NMVOCs) are, together with NOx, CO and CH4, among … air-quality atmosphere bira copernicus dlr esa
