To make things easier to diagnose, can you use this file for testing your l2bin and l3mapgen steps?https://oceandata.sci.gsfc.nasa.gov/cgi/getfile/V2015045190600.L2_SNPP_SST.ncI know nothing about your source file, but it is clear from your resultant image that there are clouds in it.  By using...

I would like to add that you should really consider running l2bin with qual_max=2 instead of a higher number for qual_max.  Be aware that if you use qual_max = 3 or qual_max=4 this will NOT mask out cloud, straylight, and other potentially bad pixels.  It really depends on whether you are ...

(NOTE: I edited this entry and changed l2bin suggestion to use qual_max=2)It is definitely helpful to see the commands you are using.For l2gen: you do NOT need the resolution field (it is only used currently for MODIS in order to support bands of different resolutions).  The resolution which is...

Regarding  "I need to use reproject and mosaic to remove the bowtie effect on my VIIRS imaging... ",when you run l2bin, at that point the bowtie correction is applied, so your file output from l3mapgen is already bowtie corrected.  Note: bowtie correction can only be applied when...

It would be easier to use netCDF4 as the output of l3mapgen and then the input for gpt.It isn't clear why you need the bandMaths node but it is incorrect and incomplete in your xml workflow file.  You are only defining a name for your new band, you also have to at least define <type> and <e...

Note: Although VIIRS does contain 5 I-bands at 375m nadir spatial resolution, we are currently only supporting the 16 M-bands which are at 750m nadir spatial resolution.  (see instrument specs: https://ncc.nesdis.noaa.gov/documents/documentation/viirs-users-guide-tech-report-142a-v1.3.pdf)You do nee...

This may now be obvious, but to add to the response by gnwii, their is only one resultant product/band in your workflow and it is "sst".  The "band_1" you are seeing is "sst" and its misleading name is not referring to any source VIIRS bands or anything of that nat...

Yes, once you have created the level3 file (output of l3mapgen) you can use mosaic or the other SeaDAS tools on that file.

Yes, you cannot send the mosaic file into l2bin (and it is not needed).  The OCSSW processing file flow and file formats are completely separate from the Mosaic file flow.  Send the level-2 files (outputted by l2gen) directly into l2bin (if more than one level2 file, which is likely your c...

GPT does not yet support the addition of the palette and its criteria in the workflow of the nodes, with the exception of the WriteImage operator which can do this, but it is limited to only writing an image (and you are correct, currently only in png format).    In SeaDAS 7.5 (coming soon...
