ACSPO development is led by Alexander Ignatov of the NOAA/NESDIS Center for Satellite Applications and Research (STAR), in conjunction with John Sapper of the NOAA/NESDIS Office of Satellite and Product Operations (OSPO). This CSPP release was created in close collaboration with John Stroup at STAR.
This CSPP release (CSPP_ACSPO v1.1) provides ACSPO version 2.40, adapted and tested for operation in a real-time direct broadcast environment. The software contains binary executable files and supporting static data files, as well as input and output files for verification of a successful installation.
What is new in CSPP_ACSPO v1.1?
- Ability to handle both types of VIIRS moderate resolution geolocation input, i.e., GMODO and GMTCO (terrain-corrected),
File name updates (i.e., corrected GDS2 file names for AVHRR and MODIS; additional flexibility for how to set the time stamps fields in the file names),
Significant upgrades to the sensor-specific error statistics (SSES) algorithm,
De-striping of VIIRS SDR and MODIS L1B IR data.
- Intel or AMD CPU with 64-bit instruction support,
8 GB RAM,
CentOS-6 64-bit Linux (or other compatible 64-bit Linux distribution), 1.5 GB of disk space (plus space for your own DB data and CSPP_ACSPO products).
- Suomi NPP VIIRS SDR (from CSPP or NOAA CLASS),
NOAA-15,16,17,18,19 and Metop-A,B AVHRR (from AAPP v7 or NOAA CLASS),
MODIS Aqua and Terra L1B (via SeaDAS modisl1db which can be executed as part of the IMAPP Virtual Machine or NASA LANCE/LAADS).
Complete installation, execution and product information is included with the release.
CSPP development is led by the Space Science and Engineering Center at the University of Wisconsin-Madison with funding support from the NOAA/NASA Joint Polar Satellite System (JPSS). The CSPP ACSPO software can be downloaded from:
