What CRS for QGIS - Sea surface temperature

Hi there, I know this is a pretty basic question. What CRS should I use when importing the AQUA-MODIS Sea Surface Temperature – Monthly – 4km raster data?

Hi,

The simple answer is to use WGS 84 (EPSG: 4326) CRS. The MODIS L3 SST is in netCDF format, and can be imported by using Add Layer function. Not sure if this answer your question. Please let us know if you have further questions.

Thanks,
