SAMI3 is a fully three-dimensional model of the low- to mid-latitude that has recently been developed at NRL. It is based on the two-dimensional model SAMI2 (Huba et al., 2000). SAMI3 uses a unique non-orthogonal gridding system and includes longitudinal transport. In this study we present simulation results from several benchmarking runs. We consider a latitudinal extent +/- 55o about the geomagnetic equator and a longitudinal resolution of 2o. We compare and contrast the impact of longitudinal drifts. We also present the capability of producing satellite sensor data: TEC and EUV measurements. These involve line-of-sight integrations of ionospheric densities. We have developed software to provide this data for arbitrary satellite paths and scan directions. As an example, we demonstrate reconstruction of the ionosphere using tomographic techniques based on TEC measurements from the SAMI3 model. \ Huba, J.D., G. Joyce, and J.A. Fedder, J. Geophys.
