The Suomi NPP is the first in a new generation of satellites intended to replace the Earth Observing System satellites, which were launched from 1997 to 2011. The satellite orbits the Earth about 14 times each day. Its five imaging systems include:
Advanced Technology Microwave Sounder (ATMS),[13] a microwave radiometer which will help create global moisture and temperature models
Cross-track Infrared Sounder (CrIS),[14] a Michelson interferometer to monitor moisture and pressure
Ozone Mapping and Profiler Suite (OMPS),[15] a group of imaging spectrometers to measure ozone levels, especially near the poles
Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS),[16] a 22-band radiometer to collect infrared and visible light data to observe weather, climate, oceans, nightlight, wildfires, movement of ice, and changes in vegetation and landforms
Clouds and the Earth's Radiant Energy System
Clouds and the Earth's Radiant Energy System (CERES), a radiometer to detect thermal radiation, including reflected solar radiation and thermal radiation emitted by the Earth
