An error analysis of differential absorption lidar (DIAL) measurements of stratospheric ozone from a Space Shuttle is discussed. A transmitter system consisting of a KrF excimer laser pumping gas cells of H2 or D2 producing output wavelengths in the near UV is shown to be useful for the measurement of ozone in an altitude range from 15 to 50 km.
