Earthdata Forum

Hello,

The ASDC would like to request the following be added to the GCMD as instrument keywords:

Instruments > Earth Remote Sensing Instruments > Passive Remote Sensing > Thermal/Radiation Detectors > Total Detector
Long name/short name: Total Detector

Instruments > Earth Remote Sensing Instruments > Passive Remote Sensing > Thermal/Radiation Detectors > Window Detector
Long name/short name: Window Detector

Instruments > Earth Remote Sensing Instruments > Passive Remote Sensing > Thermal/Radiation Detectors > Shortwave Detector
Long name/short name: Shortwave Detector

Instruments > Earth Remote Sensing Instruments > Passive Remote Sensing > Thermal/Radiation Detectors > Longwave Detector
Long name/short name: Longwave Detector

Documentation for all: Clouds and the Earth’s Radiant Energy System
(CERES) Algorithm Theoretical Basis Document (https://www.cs.odu.edu/~mln/ltrs-pdfs/NASA-95-rp1376vol2.pdf)

Please let me know if you have any questions or if I need different documentation.

Thank you,
Caroline

Caroline,

Thank you for the keyword request. We will review these and get back in touch if we have additional questions.

@crdowney I have made the keyword changes; please review.
