The PAR algorithm is only valid over ice-free waters. The R2022 reprocessing saw a number of changes to the ancillary inputs we use, one of these was the sea ice fraction. While the R2018 may have had some retrievals in your region of interest, they were likely not accurate. In the Hudson Bay, sea i...

The answer is simple....l2gen supports (in the loosest sense) PRISM in ENVI format, not the special netCDF4 format created for the CORAL program. Though this did highlight the fact that the metadata in the L1B files is amiss...we'll look at correcting that :D For context, support for the ENVI format...

Yes, the Franz et al., 2007 approach was used, but with limited coverage over MOBY, the ocean reflectance model of Werdell et al., 2007 was necessary. Several clear ocean scenes were used.

The answer depends upon the netCDF reader client (for example, SeaDAS does, as does the python netCDF4 API). Most should apply them, so you wouldn't need to do so manually. If you're finding the values don't seem geophysically reasonable, it is likely the scale_factor and add_offset were not applied...

The ocean color products from PACE OCI will be generated from L1B. There isn't a PACE land surface reflectance product...yet ...notice the TBDs under the land section of https://pace.oceansciences.org/data_table.htm ;) We are exploring options, though, one of which is the current rhos (Rayleigh corr...

CentOS7 had a good run. The error message you saw was from the wrapper "BuildIt.py" script. You can build the hdf4 by itself and see what the actually complaint (navigate to opt/src/hdf4 and run it's BuildIt script). It is likely resolvable (but without access to a CentOS7 machine, I'm afr...

CentOS7 is end of life in June. We no longer have (or are allowed to have) a CentOS7 machine, the "oldest" we have is RHEL8 (which is what V2023.3 was compiled on). Since it still works for you, you can continue to use V2023.2 or look to upgrade your server to an OS with a longer support c...

SeaDAS 8.4.1 defaults to the V2023.3 tag for the OCSSW software, which provides update_luts version 2.1. The python scripts are not OS dependent. Make sure you don't have a previously installed version that is being called. You can verify the installed version of OCSSW in the GUI (SeaDAS-Toolbox->In...

Well, something buggered the sqlite DB used by the ancDB code. Perhaps something on the SQLite documentation page about possible sources for corruption will help you diagnose the issue: https://sqlite.org/howtocorrupt.html

The 10kb file is probably the HTML page for the login redirect. This means something isn't right with the way your credentials are passed, and you were not logged into your EDL account. Verify that your .netrc file is correctly defined.
