Layer Meanings for the CALIPSO version 4 Level 2 cloud layer product

On Jul 19, 2017 I'd like to work on the cloud layer product in 5 km resolution, f.ex. CAL_LID_L2_05kmCLay-Standard-V4-10.2008-01-01T04-48-09ZN.hdf.

DSCOVR Epic Imagery

On Jul 19, 2017

I am aware the EPIC images taken use the RBG channels, however the only ones released to the public are already combined, is there a way to have access to the raw images that contain each separate channel?

There is some leftover solar flux energy beyond 4 microns, but I could not find any mention in the site documents of whether or not this residual flux is corrected for in the data? Could you provide ...
