Data Set Information
This data set consists of satellite measurements of global and
regional ocean color data obtained by the Sea-viewing Wide Field-of-view
Sensor, in orbit on the OrbView-2 (formerly SeaStar) platform. The
concentration and predominant identity of substances and particles in the
euphotic (lighted) zone of the upper ocean influences the apparent color of the
ocean, which can range from deep blue to varying shades of green and ruddy
brown. Living phytoplankton (which contain chlorophyll and associated
photosynthetic pigments), inorganic sediments, detritus (particulate
organic matter), and dissolved organic matter all contribute to the color of
the ocean.
The first instrument to collect scientific data on the color of the
ocean was the Coastal Zone Color Scanner (CZCS), an instrument on the NIMBUS-7
satellite, which operated from November 1978 to June 1986. The operational
parameters of the SeaWiFS mission were based on the heritage of the CZCS
mission and were designed to improve the acquisition and accuracy of ocean
color data for global and regional study of ocean biology and related
physical oceanographic phenomena.
The temporal range of the data set begins in September 1997,
with a nominal mission duration of five years. All of the data products
from SeaWiFS are stored in the Hierarchical Data Format (HDF), which
was developed by the National Center for Supercomputing Applications
(NCSA) at the University of Illinois.
The SeaWiFS mission is a public-private partnership between
NASA and Orbimage Inc. For that reason, access to the
data during the mission is restricted to Authorized Users who will use
the data for scientific purposes. To become an Authorized User, an
individual investigator must submit a "Dear Colleague" letter to the
SeaWiFS Project stating the purpose of research utilizing SeaWiFS data.
Satellite and instrument information
SeaWiFS was launched August 1, 1997 by a Pegasus XL launch vehicle.
Data acquisition commenced on September 4, 1997. SeaWiFS acquires
approximately 15 pole-to-pole orbital swaths of data per day, and
approximately 90% of the ocean surface is scanned every two days.

Bands 1-6 have 20 nm bandwidth; bands 7 and 8 have 40 nm bandwidth.
Notes: Gelbstoffe (German for "yellow substance") describes amorphous, high
molecular weight organic matter with a somewhat polymeric
nature. It absorbs strongly in the blue region of the spectrum.
The term "Case 1" (and also "Case 2") refers to a water "type" defined by optical characteristics. Case 1 water is clear, open-ocean water, and
Case 2 is generally coastal, higher productivity, turbid water.
K(490) is the diffuse attenuation coefficient at 490 nm, a measure of
optical clarity.
Brief instrument overview
The primary optics of SeaWiFS consist of an off-axis folded
telescope and a rotating half-angle mirror. Radiation backscattered by
the Earth's surface and atmosphere is collected by the telescope and
reflected onto the mirror, and the beam path is then directed through
beam splitters (dichroics, which transmit some wavelengths and reflect
the rest) to separate the radiation into four wavelength regions.
Spectral bandpass filters are used to narrow these regions to the 20 nm
requirements of the eight SeaWiFS spectral bands, and the radiation then falls
on silicon detector elements. The electronics module amplifies the detector
signal, performs analog-to-digital conversion and time delay and integration
for data transmission. Instrument calibration utilizes an on-board solar
radiation diffuser and lunar observation. The instrument may be tilted forward
or backward 20 degrees along the spacecraft orbital trajectory to
minimize the effects of sun glint.
A brief description of ocean color measurements
When visible light from the Sun illuminates the ocean surface, it
is subject to several optical effects. Foremost among these effects are
light reflection and absorption. Reflection beneath the water surface is
generally inefficient, returning only a small percentage of the light
intensity falling on the ocean surface. Absorption selectively removes
some wavelengths of light while allowing the transmission of other
wavelengths.
In the ocean, light reflects off particulate matter suspended in
the water, and absorption is primarily due to the photosynthetic
pigments (chlorophyll) present in phytoplankton. The net result of these
optical interactions is light radiating from the ocean surface, the
"water-leaving radiance". Radiometers are instruments that measure
the radiance intensity at a given wavelength of light. The measured radiance
may then be quantitatively related to various constituents in the water column
that interact with visible light, such as chlorophyll. The concentration of
chlorophyll, in turn, may be used to calculate the amount of carbon being
produced by photosynthesis, which is termed primary productivity.
SeaWiFS is a spectroradiometer, which means that it measures radiance
in specific bands of the visible light spectrum. The advantage of observing
the oceans with a space-based spectroradiometer is the global coverage that a
satellite provides. The disadvantage is that interfering optical effects,
primarily light scattering in the atmosphere, must be accounted for to
provide an accurate measurement of the water-leaving radiance.
For a more detailed description of how ocean color measurements
are accomplished, refer to the SeaWiFS Technical Report Series Volumes
5 and 25, "Ocean Optics Protocols for SeaWiFS Validation" and "Ocean
Optics Protocols for SeaWiFS Validation, Revision 1", or read the online
discussion at:
http://disc.sci.gsfc.nasa.gov/OCDST/classic_scenes/11_classics_radiation.html
SeaWiFS Mission Data Collection Strategy
SeaWiFS bands can only view the sunlit Earth. The useful data collection
range is limited to solar zenith angles less than 75 degrees, which
corresponds to 40 minutes per orbit.
SeaWiFS acquires data at a nadir resolution of 1 km per pixel
(LAC resolution). This data is broadcast continuously and can be
recorded by any HRPT station within range. The data is subsampled
at 4 km resolution (GAC resolution), which is recorded onboard the
satellite for downlink twice a day. A limited amount of LAC resolution
data is also recorded onboard the satellite for regions of special interest.
GAC recording and HRPT direct broadcast are both scheduled for the full
40 minutes per orbit.
Data Set Organization
SeaWiFS data at the Goddard Distributed Active Archive Center
(DAAC) are available in HDF, the data format
used by the SeaWiFS Project and the Earth Observing System (EOS). HDF is
a self-describing, platform independent format. Tools for analysis of this
data are described under "Data Access Information" below. The use of HDF
allows a large amount of metadata, including calibration, navigation, mission
information, and data quality indicators,to be included with each data file.
A complete description of the contents of SeaWiFS HDF files may be found in
the PostScript document "SeaWiFS Archive Product Specifications", available at:
http://oceancolor.gsfc.nasa.gov/DOCS/ocformats.html
(The DAAC will have a copy of this document in June.)
There are two distinct types of SeaWiFS data, LAC and GAC. GAC
data is the global SeaWiFS data product, obtained at 4 km resolution over
most of the world's oceans. LAC data is at 1 km resolution,and is available
for specific regions from High Resolution Picture Transmission (HRPT) ground
stations, or for sites of interest designated by the SeaWiFS Project. The
latter category utilizes the limited on-board memory designated for LAC data.
The satellite continuously broadcasts HRPT LAC data, which can be received
by any SeaWiFS ground stations within receiving range.
SeaWiFS data is archived according to the standard remote sensing
definitions of Level 1a, Level 2, and Level 3 data. Level 1a
data consists of raw radiances measured at the satellite, and also
includes calibration and navigational data along with selected instrument and
spacecraft telemetry. Level 2 data consists of derived geophysical parameters
produced using the Level 1a radiances as input data. Level 2 parameters are
only produced for GAC data. Level 3 data is global gridded data that has
been statistically collected into daily, weekly, monthly, or annual
grid cells, corresponding either to 9 x 9 km equal area grid squares (binned
product) or 0.09 x 0.09 degree squares (standard mapped image product).
The exact contents of each data level are given below.
In addition to the SeaWiFS data described below, ancillary ozone
and meteorological data that are utilized in geophysical product algorithms
are also available from the DAAC. These products are also in HDF.
SeaWiFS File Naming Convention
A typical SeaWiFS file name is in the following format:
Syyyydddhhmmss.<suffix>
S represents SeaWiFS, and the subsequent digits represent the Greenwich Mean
Time (GMT) year, day of the year(Julian calendar), and hour, minutes and
seconds of the start of the first scan line.
The suffix describes the actual data type:
Level 1A data:
L1A_GAC Level 1a GAC data
L1A_LAC Level 1a LAC data
L1A_SOL Solar calibration data
L1A_LUN Lunar calibration data
L1A_TDI Time delay and integration (TDI) check
L1A_IGC Intergain calibration check
L1A_BRS Level 1a browse data
L1A_Hxxx HRPT data, where xxx is a three-letter code for a particular
HRPT station. HWFF is for Wallops Flight Facility.
Level 2 data:
L2_GAC Level 2 GAC data
L2_BRS Level 2 Browse data
Level 3 data, binned product:
L3b_DAY.main Binned product main file
L3b_DAY.xff Binned product subordinate file (one of 11 geophysical
parameters)
All of these files also have 11 subordinate files, with the same naming
convention as above:
L3b_8D 8-day binned product
L3b_MO Monthly binned product
L3b_YR Annual binned product
Level 3 data, standard mapped image product:
L3m_DAY_CHLO Daily chlorophyll a
L3m_DAY_A510 Angstrom coefficient, 510-865 nm
L3m_DAY_L555 Daily normalized water leaving radiance at 555 nm
L3m_DAY_T865 Aerosol optical thickness (tau) at 865 nm
L3m_DAY_K490 Daily K(490)
There are also SMI files corresponding to the 8-day, monthly, and
yearly binned products. The suffixes 8D, MO, and YR are inserted
in place of DAY in the format shown above.
Level 3 browse products:
L3_BRS_DAY Daily browse product
L3_BRS_8D 8-day browse product
L3_BRS_MO Monthly browse product
L3_BRS_YR Annual browse product

All of the data types described above can be accessed and ordered
using the Goddard DAAC's SeaWiFS Data Browser:
http://disc.sci.gsfc.nasa.gov/data/dataset/SEAWIFS/
For Level 1A HRPT LAC, Level 1A GAC, and Level 2 GAC data, the browser
allows users to specify spatial and temporal search criteria.
Spatial criteria may be
entered using either an interactive map or by entering numerical
latitude and longitude values. Temporal search ranges are entered
by year, month, and day. Level 1A LAC data from individual HRPT stations and
Level 3 binned and SMI data are accessed in a similar fashion through the browser,
though only temporal searches are required for these data categories.
Note that HRPT data availability from the DAAC is dependent on data exchange
agreements and data transfer arrangements that are negotiated by the
SeaWiFS Project with HRPT station operators.
After the browser has identified data files meeting the specified
search criteria, users may examine browse images before ordering individual
data files. Data may be obtained by File Transfer Protocol (FTP), or on
tape in either 4mm or 8mm format via mail delivery from the DAAC. Users
with slow or uncertain network links to the DAAC should consider acquiring
the data on tape, which also applies to users who are requesting large
volumes of data.
Authorized User Status
All SeaWiFS data acquired from the start of instrument operations through March 11, 1998, is free and available to the public without restrictions on
usage or application. Data acquired after March 11, 1998, is ONLY
available for scientific research to Authorized Users who have registered with
the SeaWiFS Project. Any individual scientist who will be conducting research
that employs SeaWiFS data must be a registered Authorized User. A single
Authorized User cannot obtain data to be used anonymously by members of a
research group; all of the members of the group must be Authorized Users.
Researchers or research groups who do not follow this policy are at
risk of full revocation of use and access to SeaWiFS data. Any Authorized
User who distributes data to non-Authorized Users is also at risk of
revocation of use and access to SeaWiFS data.
Reading data on tape/unpacking transferred data:
Data are available on 4 mm (DAT), high or low density 8 mm (Exabyte),
and 6250~bpi 9-track tapes. Tapes are created with UNIX utilities "dd" and
"tar" on a Silicon Graphics 440 system. The no-swap device and a block size of
63.5 KB are used, which translates to a blocking factor of 127. Tapes may be
requested in "dd" or "tar" file format. The data are archived and distributed
in compressed format. Each tape distributed by the Goddard DAAC contains
printed paper labels with the names of the files it contains in the order they
were written. Files are compressed using the standard UNIX "compress" command,
indicated by a ".Z" appended to the data file name. An ASCII header file
on each tape lists the files on the tape.
To read a "tar.Z" format tape on a computer with a UNIX operating system:
First uncompress the file by typing "uncompress <filename>.tar.Z".
When the uncompression is finished, type the command:
tar -xvbf <filename>.tar 127
- where xvbf are tar command key arguments as follows:
x indicates that the data are to be read from tape
v requests verbose output; i.e., processed file names will be listed
b states that a blocking factor is specified
f states that an archive name is specified.
The fields in < > are system specific and may specify a device, such as a tape
drive, or a file directory. The specific parameters depend on your local
workstation configuration (e.g., this will be "/dev/8mm1nr" if you read the
tape off the 8mm1 tape mdrive on the DAAC computer with the "no rewind" option).
127 is the blocking factor.
To read a "tar" format file received by FTP, use the command:
tar -xvf <filename>.tar
To read a "dd" format tape on a computer with a UNIX operating system, use the
command:
dd if=<dev> of=<filename> bs=65024
where if=<dev> specifies the tape drive with "no rewind" option (e.g.,
if=/dev/8mm1nr for the DAAC computer.)
of=<filename> specifies the desired output file name
bs=65024 indicates the block size in bytes
To read a tar.Z file on a PC or Macintosh computer:
Reading the file will require an application program capable of
uncompressing and untarring the file. WinZip is an application that
works on the Windows 95, 98 and NT operating systems; free versions
are available for download on the World Wide Web. Similar applications
for Macintosh (such as StuffIt Expander and tar) are capable of performing
the same operations. WinZip recognizes the UNIX compression and tar
format and extracts the file in uncompressed format.
A bit about HDF:
HDF is the standard data format of the entire Goddard EOSDIS Version 0
(V0) and the SeaWiFS Project. HDF was developed by the National Center for
Supercomputing Applications (NCSA) Software Development Group. The HDF group
also supplies HDF utilities that allow file manipulation and conversion on a
variety of platforms with UNIX-based operating systems.
Additional explanation of HDF can be found at the HDF Web site:
http://hdf.ncsa.uiuc.edu/
HDF provides several different "data models" which can be used to store
data products. The data models currently provided by HDF include
Scientific Data Sets (SDS), 8-bit and 24-bit Raster Image Sets (RIS), Vdatas,
and Vgroups. An SDS is a multi-dimensional array, and a Vdata is a binary
table. In addition to the data models, HDF allows the inclusion of
metadata with each data file. Metadata is referred to as Global
Attributes, and includes such information as the mission and
sensor characteristics, when and how the data was processed, the downlink
station where the data was received, and similar. Along with that
information, the Global Attributes also describe the start and end
times of a data file, geographic location, and data quality.
The Goddard DAAC also has a discussion of HDF, HDF utilities, and links to
several different software packages.
http://hdf.ncsa.uiuc.edu/
A site for information on HDF, featuring the HDF libraries for PC and
Macintosh, HDF-capable software, and links to user groups, is found at:
http://www.rsinc.com/NOeSYS/hdf.cfm
Processing/Analysis Software Packages:
The SeaDAS software system was written for the specific purpose
of analyzing and processing SeaWiFS HDF data. SeaDAS is a comprehensive image
analysis package for all SeaWiFS data products and ancillary data (wind,
surface pressure, humidity and ozone) from NMC (National Meteorological Center
and TOVS (TIROS Operational Vertical Sounder). All SeaDAS source code is
available for download via FTP.
Note: The use of SeaDAS requires IDL or IDL-Runtime. SeaDAS
4.0 is released with a blanket purchase of IDL-Runtime, so users do not
have to acquire IDL or IDL-Runtime at their expense. Additional programming
using SeaDAS source code will require full IDL, which must be purchased separately.
The minimum hardware requirements for SeaDAS are an SGI Indigo2 or SUN
Sparc 10. Recommended minimum system requirements are:
Memory: 192 MB (regular users), 384 MB (HRPT users)
Disk: 3 GB
Tape Drive: 4MM(DAT) or 8mm Exabyte
Display: 19'' Console or X-terminal, 1280x1024 resolution, 8-bit, 256 colors.

Languages: C (SGI V3.19, SUN V 3.0.1), FORTRAN(SGI V 4.0.2, SUN V 3.0.1), IDL 5.1 or 5.2
Software Libraries: HDF 4.1r1 (included in SeaDAS).
SeaDAS PC Linux version:
SeaDAs for Linux/PC has been developed and tested under the following environment:
Gateway 2000 PC with Pentium II 300 MHz CPU
Redhat Linux 5.2 (SeaDAS 4.0 for Linux will be for Redhat Linux 6.0)
IDL 5.1 or 5.2
More information on the current version of SeaDAS
SeaDAS is available for download via anonymous FTP from:
ftp://seadas.gsfc.nasa.gov/seadas/
Other packages:
Fortner Software's HDF Browser and Transform have been
used to display simulated SeaWiFS HDF data files on a Pentium PC running
Windows95. The browser allows a user to inspect the contents of all SDS and
Vgroups in the HDF file, and will also display a raster image if it is
available. The browser is a free utility that can be
obtained at the URL http://www.rsinc.com/NOeSYS/hdf.cfm.
In addition to the Browser, the
HDF libraries (PC and Macintosh versions) are also available for download at
the above URL. Fortner (now a subsidiary of Research Systems, Inc., authors of IDL) has additional software packages that can manipulate HDF files.
