4.11. MERSI-2 L1B Reader¶
The FY3-D MERSI2 Level 1B reader operates on Level 1B (L1B) HDF5 files.
The files come in four varieties; band data and geolocation data, both at 250m and 1000m resolution. Files usually have the following naming scheme:
tf{start_time:%Y%j%H%M%S}.{platform_shortname}-{trans_band:1s}_MERSI_1000M_L1B.{ext}
This reader’s default resampling algorithm is ewa for Elliptical Weighted
Averaging resampling. The --weight-delta-max parameter is set to 40 and the
--weight-distance-max parameter is set to 1.
The frontend can be specified with the polar2grid.sh command using
the mersi2_l1b frontend name. The MERSI2 frontend provides the following products:
