Level 1B: Data products are processed to sensor units. The BDS
product contains filtered broadband radiances, geolocation and viewing
geometry, Sun geometry, satellite position and velocity, and all raw
engineering and status data from the instrument.
Level 2: Data products are derived geophysical variables at the
same resolution and location as the Level 1B source data. They include
the Level 1B geolocation and viewing geometry, Sun geometry, satellite
position and velocity, along with the derived geophysical variables such
as cloud properties, filtered and unfilterd broadband radiances, fluxes,
and Scene Identification.
Level 3: Data products are variables mapped on uniform space-time
grid scales.
