Abstract
The global mapping and monitoring of the atmosphere is acknowledged as a vital undertaking of the mankind due to the menacing disturbances in the atmospheric composition. In this endeavor instruments aboard polar orbit satellites will play a central role in future. In this work we will report the theoretical data analysis of one of the proposed instruments. This instrument is called GOMOS or Global Ozone Monitoring by Occultation of Stars. GOMOS has been proposed for the first European Polar Platform by Service d’Aeronomie (France) and Finnish Meteorological Institute [1-2].
