| Abstract | PGE03 v6.0.44 (Terra). Updated LM to choose destripe_config_terra.dat.v4 for Terra. Updated LM to use same format of gdas file for 2015-01-14 when there was a transistion to a new format. Terra PGE03 6.0.44 was installed on 1/27/15 on ops8 for forward production, and used in Terra reprocessing from 1/1/2008. |
| Problem Statement | Terra Band 36 experiences some single detector outages after 06-26-2008. This requires modification to the destripe config file for this period. These modifications were previously done for PGE06, but not made for PGE03. A second change is needed to accommodate the GDAS file changes after 01-14-2015. |
| Description of Change | Updated Loader Module to chose destripe_config_terra.dat.v4 for Terra after 2008-06-26. Updated Loader Module to use same format of GDAS file for 2015-01-14 when there was a transition to a new format |
| Products Affected | Small impact to profile product in MOD07_L2. No impacts in Level 3 products. |
| Software Affected | PGE03 v6.0.44 |
| Processing String to Receive the Change | Terra Forward, Terra Reprocessing |
| Downstream Product Effects | None |
| Data Granules to be Used for Science Testing | Single day science test run for Terra 2008 Day 359. No significant impacts noted. 2010-059 |
| Justification | Avoids corruption of destriped L1B Band36 radiances due to single bad detector. |
| Effective Date for Implementation of Change | ASAP Terra forward and reprocessing after 1/1/2008 |
| Status | Science test completed. Gang Ye approved on 01/27/2015. Bill Ridgway for Steve Platnick approved on 10/21/2015. |
