TOMS aboard Nimbus-7 and Meteor-3 provided global measurements of total
column ozone on a daily basis and together provide a complete data set of daily ozone
from November 1978 - December 1994. After an eighteen month period when the
program had no on-orbit capability, ADEOS TOMS was launched on August 17, 1996
and provided data until June 29, 1997. Earth Probe TOMS was launched on July 2,
1996 to provide supplemental measurements, but was boosted to a higher orbit to
replace the failed ADEOS. Earth Probe continues to provide near real-time data.
