Working with Level 2 satellite swath data can prove challenging for many users. The variety of metadata, high resolution, and orbit-based nature of such data makes it difficult to acquire and manage. The NASA Goddard Earth Sciences Data and Information Services Center (GES DISC) has developed a general-purpose Level 2 Subsetting service that facilitates access to Level 2 data products. The Level 2 Subsetter enables users to sub-sample swath and gridded data in a variety of ways: by location (in a lat/lon box, within a circle of given radius, or at a specific point), by time (via swath segments or collections of granules), by any nonspatial dimension, or by selecting specific variables. The Level 2 Subsetting service also allows users to specify output data configuration and file format. In this presentation, we will detail and demonstrate the capabilities of this new service.
