Short summary

We introduce the first space-based catalogue of SO₂ emission sources seen by OMI. The inventory contains about 500 sources. They account for about a half of all SO₂ emissions; the remaining half is likely related to sources emitting less than 30 kt yr⁻¹ and not detected by OMI. The sources are grouped by type (volcanoes, power plants, oil- and gas-related sources, and smelters) and country. The catalogue presented herein can be used for verification of available SO₂ emission inventories.
