For GOCI, you can download L1B files here -- https://oceandata.sci.gsfc.nasa.gov/directdataaccess/Level-1B/GOCI or here -- https://oceancolor.gsfc.nasa.gov/cgi/browse.pl?sen=amod

And you can do l2gen (SeaDAS processor) on GOCI L1B files with product sena (satellite azimuth angle) and senz (satellite zenith angle) included in the "selected products"

Here is the link to SeaDAS - https://seadas.gsfc.nasa.gov/

and the help page of L2gen -- https://seadas.gsfc.nasa.gov/help-8.3.0/processors/ProcessL2gen.html
