The first flight model of GOME-2 is now ready for calibration at the Technische Physics Dienst (TPD) in Delft, The Netherlands.

GOME-2 successfully finished the instrument acceptance test in early March 2002. It will now undergo calibration in the vacuum calibration facility of TPD followed by ambient calibration in the months ahead.
