VIIRS calibration file version issue

by yfan » Thu Apr 19, 2018 2:30 pm America/New_York

Hello Sean,

Just updated the OC processor for VIIRS in SeaDAS v7.4 and getting an error about unable to open the calibration files.
then i looked into the files, the new version of the calibration files are

VIIRS_NPP_CAL_STATIC_LUT_v2.0.0.2d_obpg.nc
VIIRS_NPP_CAL_RSB_DYNAMIC_LUT_v2.0.0.2d_obpg.nc

however the code is looking for
VIIRS_NPP_CAL_STATIC_LUT_v2.0.0.2_obpg.nc
VIIRS_NPP_CAL_RSB_DYNAMIC_LUT_v2.0.0.2c_obpg.nc

simply rename the file will solve the issue, just to report this bug.

Best,
Yongzhen

This is not a bug and you should not change the names of the LUTs.  Change the LUTs called for in the $OCDATAROOT/viirsn/instrument_defaults.par
