Online processing facility for MERIS products generation

[oha]

The online processing facility for MERIS products generation is available at : http://www.odesa-info.eu/processing

In its current configuration, users can request the processing of level 1 & 2 products over a selected area, for a time period or an orbit range. The MERIS processing version is either the nominal ESA MERIS processing (available to all users) or the on-going version still under testing and subject to changes before launching the MERIS reprocessing. Before becoming official, this latter version is restricted to the QWG members.

In a second step, users will have access to two additional functionalities:

* Level 2 processing of any uploaded Level 1 product (for instance ICOL postprocessed).

* Level 1 + Level 2 processing of any list of specified matchups. In that case, the facility starts the processing from an internal MERIS Level 0 database.

This facility will give access to intermediary data of the processing, like intermediary atmospheric correction quantities. Several qualified processor versions are available (official MEGS and ESA qualified alternative algorithms).
Users can modify Auxiliary Data Files (ADF) and limit the computation on their branch of interest (Ocean, Land, Cloud).
