The Ozone Dynamics Ultraviolet Spectrometer (ODUS) is a satellite-borne, nadir-looking ultraviolet spectrometer for measuring total ozone amount. It will be launched in 2005 onboard Japanese earth observation satellite GCOM-A1. The ODUS instrument measures continuous spectrum from 306 to 420 nm with 0.5 nm spectral resolution and 20 km spatial resolution, using an Ebert-type polychromator and a one-dimensional silicon CMOS array detector, which will improve the accuracy of the retrieved total ozone amount. We have completed the conceptual design of system, and manufactured and tested the laboratory model of the detector and the optical assembly. We have succeeded in developing a detector with sufficient sensitivity and a polychromator with little stray light. We have also confirmed the optical performance and evaluated the detailed wavelength structure of the instrument function. This paper presents an overview of the ODUS instrument, the summary of the evaluation results of the laboratory models.
