NOAA has announced a version change for their SNPP and NOAA-20 VIIRS Aerosol Optical Depth products that we distribute on EUMETCast.

The new version, v3r2, will be released on 16 May and introduces the following scientific changes:

  • Fix to the initialization and pointers.
  • Change to use 17 class Surface Types, rather than 14 class Surface Types.

The new version will be reflected in the product filenames.
