Data analysis system developed for ocean color satellite sensors

Abstract

A primary objective of the Sea‐viewing Wide Field‐of‐view Sensor (SeaWiFS) program at the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center is to provide rapid and easy access to all SeaWiFS data products and exploit the data set to its maximum potential. The SeaWiFS project provides a variety of services and documentation to accomplish this, including user‐friendly data processing and display software: the SeaWiFS Data Analysis System (SeaDAS). SeaDAS Version 4 is a comprehensive software package for processing, displaying, and analyzing all SeaWiFS data products and it is designed to serve a wide range of users, including individual scientists, SeaWiFS ground stations, and operational or commercial users.
