IMOS - Satellite Remote Sensing - SST - L3C - SNPP - 1 day - day time - Australia

This is a single sensor, multiple swath SSTskin product for a single day-time period, derived using observations from the VIIRS instrument on the Suomi-NPP satellite. It is provided as a 0.02deg x 0.02deg cylindrical equidistant projected map over the region 70°E to 170°W, 20°N to 70°S. Only day time passes are included in the product. The quality level for each pixel was remapped using the original ACSPO VIIRS L3U quality levels and Sensor Specific Error Statistics (SSES), as described in Griffin et al. (2017) Appendix at http://imos.org.au/facilities/srs/sstproducts/sstdata0/sstdata-references/, before compositing single swaths from the sensor. Each grid cell contains the 1 day average of all the highest available quality SSTs that overlap with that cell, weighted by the area of overlap.
