Abstract PGE530 2.0.6

C2 750m Fire, PGE530, source code was already capable of processing NRT. However, PGE530_LoaderModule.pl needed a small revision so that when running in nrt it looks for and stages input with NRT specific ESDTs. Change implemented into PGE530 2.0.6 in VNP_L1nrtglu 2.0.12, VJ1_L1nrtglu 2.0.12, and VJ2_L1nrtglu 2.0.3.

Problem Statement Received a request from Diane Davies to reinstate 750m Fire VIIRS products in NRT for NPP and J1, which had been discontinued as part of the move to C2 as we did not think anyone was using them. We learned they were used/needed. Was also asked to add them in for JPSS2.
Description of Change C2 750m Fire, PGE530, source code was already capable of processing NRT. However, PGE530_LoaderModule.pl needed a small revision so that when running in nrt it looks for and stages input with NRT specific ESDTs. Change implemented into PGE530 2.0.6 in VNP_L1nrtglu 2.0.12, VJ1_L1nrtglu 2.0.12, and VJ2_L1nrtglu 2.0.3.
Products Affected VNP14_NRT, VJ114_NRT, VJ214_NRT
Software Affected PGE530 2.0.6
Processing String to Receive the Change NRT
Downstream Product Effects None
Data Granules to be Used for Science Testing No science test was conducted since PGE530 2.0.5 had previously undergone testing and is operational and only change for PGE530 2.0.6 was to the PGE530_LoaderModule.pl.
Justification Request to implement C2 VIIRS 750m Fire came directly from FIRMS team with support from Louis Giglio and Diane Davies
Effective Date for Implementation of Change VNP_L1nrtglu 2.0.12 PGE530 2.0.6; VJ1_L1nrtglu 2.0.12 PGE530 2.0.6; VJ2_L1nrtglu 2.0.3 PGE530 2.0.6New version went into nrt4 on 3/7/24 for NPP and J1, and 3/8/24 for J2; all three went into use on nrt3 on 3/8/24
Status Major algorithm development completed. Sadashiva Devadiga approved 06/21/2024. Sudipta Sakar implemented 03/25/2024.
