Hello,
The LAADS DAAC would like to request a poject keywords:

1. GCMD Project Keyword:
Short Name: GEO-LEO Deep Blue Aerosol Project
Long Name: The Geostationary Earth Orbit (GEO) – Low-Earth Orbit (LEO) Deep Blue Aerosol project

Definition:
The Geostationary Earth Orbit (GEO) – Low-Earth Orbit (LEO) Deep Blue Aerosol project is funded by NASA’s ESROGSS (Earth Science Research from Operational Geostationary Satellite Systems) program element that ran from 2019 through 2020. This project has helped develop a suite of products based on a common algorithm approach for global Deep Blue Aerosol products.
This project aims to use the Deep Blue Aerosol Optical Thickness (AOT) retrieval algorithm, which itself comprises two parts, the Deep Blue (DB) over land, and the Satellite Ocean Aerosol Retrieval (SOAR) algorithm over ocean to derive nine GEO and three GEO-LEO Merged products.
