SeaWiFS Level-1A Browse Products

Each Level-1A browse product is generated from a corresponding Level-1A GAC or HRPT product. The main data content of the product is a true-color image generated from subsampled, calibrated, Rayleigh-corrected data for bands 2, 5 and 6, stored as one byte per pixel. Each Level-1A browse product corresponds exactly in geographical coverage (scan-line and pixel extent) to that of its parent Level-1A product and is stored in one physical HDF file.
