A picture of the Earth

The ozone layer is a region of the Earth's atmosphere with a high concentration of ozone that blocks most of the sun's harmful UV radiation. The ozone concentration is greatest at altitudes of between 2020km and 4040km above the surface of the Earth, where concentrations are between 22 and 88 parts per million. If all of the ozone layer were compressed to atmospheric pressure at sea level, approximately how thick would it be?
