Abstract PGE135 v6.0.8. A new source code developed to 1) polarization correction of the L1B and compute BT for the thermal bands, 2) perform gridding of the L1B data.
Problem Statement Generate suite of C6 MAIAC intermediate products MODMAIAChkm, MODMAIAC1km, MODMAIAC1kmGEO, MYDMAIAChkm, MYDMAIAC1km, MYDMAIAC1kmGEO at MODAPS.
Description of Change Develop a new PGE to apply required preprocessing steps such as polarization correction of the L1B, followed by gridding of the needed reflectance and thermal bands in the L1B and generate the output L1B gridded product as intermediate products for use by the downstream daily radiation intermediate process (PGE140) and the L3 MAIAC process (PGE113).
Products Affected DMAIAChkm, MODMAIAC1km, MODMAIAC1kmGeo, MYDMAIChj=km, MYDMAIAC1km, MYDMAIAC1kmGeo
Software Affected PGE135 v6.0.8
Processing String to Receive the Change Terra and Aqua Forward Processing and Terra and Aqua Reprocessing
Downstream Product Effects MCD18IP, MCD19A1, MCD19A2, MCD19A3 – all yet to be made in C6
Data Granules to be Used for Science Testing Three 8-day global test and 1-day 1-tile test of the PGE generating the downstream products DSR products (MCD18A1/A2) and the MAIAC products (MCD19A1/A2/A3)
Justification The process must be run to generate the two new C6 products for use in generation of the daily surface radiation (MCD18A1/A2) and the daily MAIAC product (MCD19A1/A2/A3).
