Data Product Specification Rev P.

  1. This versions marks the beginning of FIRSTLOOK vs. FINAL processing.
  2. Introduced new thresholds that are now derived from the RCCM runs for a particular season/year. Land thresholds are no longer static.
New ancillary files:
  • RCCT_F02_0004
  
F04_0024 05/13/2005

Data Product Specification Rev M.

  1. Added two additional PGEs in order to improve overall co-registration including removal of the errors introduced by pointing changes in the DA camera.
  2. Fixed a bug associated with the orbit to orbit propagation method.
  3. Added new inland water class for RCCM calculation, and modified land second observable so it's the same as for the water classes.
New ancillary files:
  • CSSC_F01_05
  • RCCT_F02_0003
  • Stage 2 Validated:RCCM over ice-free ocean
  • Stage 1 Validated:RCCM over snow and ice-free land
F03_0023 11/28/2004

Data Product Specification Rev L.

Removed RCCM algorithm to its own PGE. Rebuilt software on Irix 6.5.2 OS.

New ancillary files (Improved Radiometric Calibration):
  • ARP_INFLTCAL_F02_0010
