Initiator Bill Ridgway
Abstract PGE89v6.0.6. Modified PGE89_LoaderMOdule.pl to fetch Mx021KM data for input. Updated PGE89.pl and pge89.cfg to enhance the quality of RGB image. Modified PGE89.pl to produce only the RGB images
Problem Statement -It was found that reprocessed C6 RGB browse images previously created using MxD02SSH were of lower quality.

-Required special version to produce RGB browse only, no other images.

Description of Change -The special version of PGE89 to reprocess only the MxBRGB_C00 global browse images using higher resolution MxD021KM data.

-Modified PGE89_LoaderMOdule.pl to fetch Mx021KM data for input

-Updated PGE89.pl and pge89.cfg to enhance the quality of RGB image.

Products Affected Global RGB Browse images (that support LAADS ordering)
Software Affected PGE89 v6.0.6
Processing String to Receive the Change Terra and Aqua Reprocessing
Downstream Product Effects None.
Data Granules to be Used for Science Testing A one-day science test was done to verify proper RGB images were created.
Justification Improve the quality of RGB browse images that had been degraded in comparison to C51.
Effective Date for Implementation of Change Completed. Can be used in forward stream or reprocessing for entire missions.
Status Major algorithm development and testing completed. Bill Ridgway approved on 08/25/2015.
