Command Line Usage
Tools -> OCSSW Processing -> l1bgen
l1bgen reads in a SeaWiFS Level-1A file (HRPT, LAC, or GAC) and generates a L1B file by applying the sensor calibration at the same resolution and location as the Level-1A data.

Usage: l1bgen argument-list The argument-list is a set of keyword=value pairs. The arguments can be specified on the commandline, or put into a parameter file, or the two methods can be used together, with commandline over-riding. The list of valid keywords follows: -help (boolean) (alias=-h,--help) (default=false) = print usage information -version (boolean) (alias=--version) (default=false) = print the version information -dump_options (boolean) (alias=--dump_options) (default=false) = print information about each option -dump_options_paramfile (ofile) (alias=--dump_options_paramfile) = print information about each option to paramfile -dump_options_xmlfile (ofile) (alias=--dump_options_xmlfile) = print information about each option to XML file par (ifile) = input parameter file pversion (string) (default=Unspecified) = processing version string suite (string) (default=OC) = product suite string for loading suite-specific defaults ifile (ifile) (alias=ifile1) = input L1 file name ofile (ofile) (alias=ofile1) (default=output) = output L2 file #1 name, output vicarious L1B for inverse mode ofile[#] = additional output L2 file name spixl (int) (default=1) = start pixel number epixl (int) (default=-1) = end pixel number (-1=the last pixel) sline (int) (default=1) = start line number eline (int) (default=-1) = end line number (-1=the last line) calfile (ifile) = system calibration file xcalfile (ifile) = cross-calibration file gain (float) = calibration gain multiplier offset (float) = calibration offset adjustment sl_pixl (int) (default=-1) = SeaWiFS only, number of LAC pixels for straylight flagging sl_frac (float) (default=0.25) = SeaWiFS only, straylight fractional threshold on Ltypical
