CALIPSO Wide Field Camera Level 1B 1 km Native Science data
 Entry ID: CAL_WFC_L1_1Km-ValStage-V3-01

[ Update this Record ]

Summary
Abstract: The primary Wide Field Camera Level 1B data products are calibrated radiance and bidirectional reflectance registered to an Earth-based grid centered on the Lidar ground track. During the normal operation, the WFC acquires science data only during the daylight portions of the CALIPSO orbits.

The Wide Field Camera Level 1B 1 km Native Science grid covers the full 61 km swath centered on the Lidar track.
