Aerosol correction is not working for Sentinel 2 MSI data

by dilip9443 » Wed Mar 01, 2023 6:03 am America/New_York

Hi there.
I am processing Sentinel-2 MSI data using Seadas software in the command line with l2gen command. Aerosol correction is not happening while processing. But, no error is shown. The processing is getting completed without any errors. The L2 products show NaN values. Same is repeated when performing via GUI. Kindly help me rectify this problem.
More details:
Seadas version 8.3
OCSSW tag - V2022.3

Below is the command prompt lines while processing the Sentinel2 data:
Starting to process images in S2A_MSIL1C_20230227T055811_N0509_R091_T42QVK_20230227T073322.SAFE folder.

Hello,

Sorry for the delayed response. Have you tried again? Do you still have the same problem?

MSI_S2A L1 file for 2023 has a new format compared to 2021, we need to figure out a way to read the L1 file with the new format for l2gen to work right and we will update here once we do.

Hi there,
Any update on this issue? I face the same problem.
I need to process the S2A L1C image to L2, but I end up with NaNs values as described by the other users above.

Best,
Mohammad

Our code needs some posList information from gml files, e.g. GRANULE/L1C_T33VUF_A031236_20210615T102244/QI_DATA/
MSK_DETFOO_B07.gml in the MSI_S2A L1 files with the old format, but we are not able to find the information from the MSI_S2A L1 files with the new format, certainly not GRANULE/L1C_T42QVK_A040128_20230227T061210/QI_DATA/MSK_DETFOO_B07.jp2

We seem to be stuck unless we can find those posList information...
