Recent improvements of the instrumentation at the LKO (Light Climatic Observatory - Ozone measuring station of the Swiss Meteorological Institute) are described. These improvements of the station at Arosa (Switzerland) include the construction of a 'spectrodome' (cabin for convenient operation of two Dobson spectrophotometers), partial automation of the two Dobson spectrophotometers D15 and D101 operated side by side (automatic data transmission to a PC), the complete automation of instrument D51 to perform Umkehr measurements, and the purchase of two Brewer spectrophotometers (Br40 and Br72). On the basis of digital data acquisition, all calculations to get the final results of the total amount of ozone are performed on PC. A data quality concept under current development is described. Its aim is to compare the consistency of the different quasi-simultaneous measurements and to identify possible drifts in the calibration of the instruments at an early stage.
