The SeaDAS development team is pleased to announce the release of SeaDAS 7.3.2, which is built atop a slightly modified BEAM 5.0.1 version. The science processing code has been updated to reflect changes recently implemented in production, provide bug fixes and support for the R2014.0 reprocessing f...

As of 31 March 2016, the distribution of SNPP VIIRS granules in the original 86-second SDR format ceased.  The new NASA-defined netCDF4 format, chunked into 6-minute granules are available for the full mission (defined as starting on 02 Jan 2012).  All OB.DAAC data portals have been update...

On 31 March 2016, the OBPG will cease the distribution of SNPP VIIRS granules           in the original 86-second SDR format.  All VIIRS Level-1A, Level-1B, and                geolocation data distributed through the ocean co...

The OB.DAAC data distribution servers will be undergoing maintenance on 2 Mar 2016 between 10am and 4pm Eastern Standard Time.Access to the data via the oceandata.sci.nasa.gov site and the data browsers on oceancolor.gsfc.nasa.gov will be impacted.The actual outage is expected to be less than 30 min...

Terra spacecraft entered safe mode at 14:33:17 GMT on 18 Feb 2016  (day 049) during an inclination adjustment maneuver.  This caused the MODIS to enter safe mode as well with the nadir and the space-view doors closed. Terra MODIS was transitioned to science mode on 24 Feb 24 2016 (day 055).  Though ...

The Terra spacecraft entered safe mode on 18 February 2016 at 1433z. The Terra Flight Operations Team is currently investigating. While in safe hold, no science data are collected. Additional information will be provided as it comes available. UPDATE - 23 Feb 2016: All planned spacecraft recovery ac...

As of 09 February 2016, all files affected by the storage server failure have been recovered, verified and full access has been restored.

On Monday, 01 February 2016, one of our many backend storage servers suffered a catastrophic hardware failure.  Due to the nature of the failure, recovery of the data may take several days.  While MOST of our data are still accessible, users may find that requests for data will randomly fa...

Not for general release, yet.  The l2gen code has been modifed to process hyperspectral data (using HICO as the guinea pig),but we've not put the required tables out yet as they are not yet finalized (and they're massive, so we only want to do it once...)As for can the GUI tell you whic...

We do not have access to an "El Capitan" system, so are unable to test the binaries on it.
Once we get access, we'll see what's up (or is it down...).
