1.5.1.1.7.1.22. polar2grid.readers.viirs_sdr module

The VIIRS SDR Reader operates on Sensor Data Record (SDR) HDF5 files from the Suomi National Polar-orbiting Partnership’s (NPP) and/or the NOAA20 Visible/Infrared Imager Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) instrument. The VIIRS SDR reader ignores filenames and uses internal file content to determine the type of file being provided, but SDR are typically named as below and have corresponding geolocation files:

SVI01_npp_d20120225_t1801245_e1802487_b01708_c20120226002130255476_noaa_ops.h5

The VIIRS SDR reader supports all instrument spectral bands, identified as the products shown below. It supports terrain corrected or non-terrain corrected navigation files. Geolocation files must be included when specifying filepaths to readers and polar2grid.sh. The VIIRS reader can be specified to the polar2grid.sh script with the reader name viirs_sdr.

This reader’s default remapping algorithm is ewa for Elliptical Weighted Averaging resampling. The --weight-delta-max parameter set to 40 and the --weight-distance-max parameter set to 2.
