| Abstract | Official processing/reprocessing of J2 C2 NASA L2 and higher products as defined in the attached processing plan. |
| Problem Statement | Processing/reprocessing of JPSS2 (J2) data from beginning of mission to leading edge for L2 and higher products for the initial official collection. |
| Description of Change | Official processing/reprocessing of J2 C2 NASA L2 and higher products as defined in the attached processing plan. |
| Products Affected | See attachments |
| Software Affected | See attachments |
| Processing String to Receive the Change | J2 Forward Processing. J2 Reprocessing. |
| Downstream Product Effects | All VIIRS land products |
| Data Granules to be Used for Science Testing | An extended science test was conducted for the L2 and higher products, including the cross-calibration approach developed for JPSS2 and implemented in PGE628. Outputs were reviewed by LDOPE and Science Team was notified of dataset availability. Sample products were also shared with LP DAAC and NSIDC for review in order to prepare for ingest at their sites and to provide feedback on any discrepancies or concerns they identified. |
| Justification | Official J2 C2 product generation, using the latest cross-calibration, science codes and static files. L1 data to be used is the JPSS2 C2.1 NASA L1s. |
| Effective Date for Implementation of Change | Reprocessing effort to begin 9/2/2025. |
| Status | Sadashiva Devadiga approved 09/05/2025. Carol Davidson implemented 09/02/2025. |
