Dataset. This data set consists of observations from the Sentinel-5 Precursor (Sentinel-5P) satellite of the European Commission’s Copernicus Earth Observation Programme. Sentinel-5P is a polar orbiting satellite that completes 14 orbits of the Earth a day. It carries the TROPOspheric Monitoring Instrument (TROPOMI) which is a spectrometer that senses ultraviolet (UV), visible (VIS), near (NIR) and short wave infrared (SWIR) to monitor ozone, methane, formaldehyde, aerosol, carbon monoxide, nitrogen dioxide and sulphur dioxide in the atmosphere. This sattelite is managed in The Netherlands by SRON and KNMI.

I1: Covid-19 Pollution Decrease. Covid-19 impact on air pollution. Create a visualization (e.g. videos) of the various levels of (polluting) gases that TROPOMI measures and visualize the global impact of the covid-19 pandemic on these emissions geographically and over time at various heights of the troposphere. While a previous LSDE showcase produced a nice viusualization, their results can probably be improved -- at the very least the analysis should be extended up until the current time.
