Abstract Fix to flag noisy detectors in Terra.
Problem Statement Fix to flag noisy detectors in Terra.
Description of Change This update to the PGE contains fix in the source code to flag the dead and noisy detectors in the 500m Surface Reflectance Band QA SDS of the L2 MOD09 product. The flags are propagated from the input L1B product. Source code fix includes fix to flag a single detector (detector 3) in band 5 of Terra as noisy using a separate QA flag in the 500m Band quality SDS. The detector was being treated as good by the earlier version of the PGE11.
