AB: The OMI instrument was launched on board of the EOS AURA satellite on 15 July 2004 and the first in-flight measurement results look very promising. This presentation discusses the first results of the performance and calibration evaluation. Besides Earth measurements, the OMI instrument also regularly performs dark, internal LED and white light source, and solar measurements. These measurements are used to assess the in-flight performance and calibration, and their time stability. The in-flight measurements enable investigations on detector and electronics, radiometric calibration, stray light, wavelength calibration, geolocation calibration. First results are presented and discussed. The interface to the 0-1 data processing is also discussed.
