The AERONET (AErosol RObotic NETwork)
program is an inclusive federation of ground-based remote
sensing aerosol networks established by AERONET and PHOTONS
and greatly expanded by AEROCAN
and other agency, institute, and university partners. The
goal is to assess aerosol optical properties and validate
satellite retrievals of aerosol optical properties. The
network imposes standardization of instruments,
calibration,
and processing.
Data from this collaboration provides globally distributed
observations of spectral aerosol optical depths, inversion
products, and precipitable water in geographically
diverse aerosol regimes. Three levels of data are available
from this website: Level 1.0 (unscreened), Level 1.5 (cloud-screened),
and Level 2.0 (Cloud-screened and quality-assured). Descriptions
may be found of program objectives, affiliations, the instrumentation,
operational issues, data products, database browser "demonstrat",
research activities, links to similar data sets, NASA EOS
links and personnel involved in AERONET.

CAUTION: Data presented in the real time data version
are unscreened and may not have final calibration reprocessing.
NOTICE TO NON-AERONET INVESTIGATORS: To maintain
the integrity of the database and fairness to the individuals
who have contributed, use of these data for publication
requires an offer of authorship to the AERONET PI(s).

- 25 May 2004 - The AERONET download tool was temporarily
disabled from May 11 to May 13 by administrative system
changes. These changes were corrected to restore the download
tool functionality on May 13.
- 25 May 2004 - The AERONET/PHOTONS workshop was
held on the south coast of Spain from May 10 to May 14,
2004. The workshop was located at the facilities of Huelva
University (la Rabida campus) in Huelva, Spain, and the
experimentation range "El
Arenosillo" which is operated by INTA's
Department of Earth Observation, Remote Sensing and Atmosphere
(Spain).
- 12 January 2004 - Please read the January 2004
AERONET
quarterly report for an update on the upcoming
project workshop, activities, and new products.
