VIIRS/JPSS2 Dual Gain IP NRT

Published by NASA/GSFC/EOS/ESDIS/LANCE MODIS;NASA/GSFC/SED/ESD/BSL/VCST | National Aeronautics and Space Administration | Catalog Last Checked: June 25, 2026 at 01:44 PM | Dataset Last Updated: June 23, 2026
The Near Real Time (NRT) VIIRS/JPSS2 Moderate-Resolution Dual Gain Bands Calibrated Radiance 6-Min L1B Swath 750m product (VJ202GDC_NRT) contains unaggregated, calibrated TOA radiances for those VIIRS sub-pixel samples that are aggregated along-scan during post-calibration ground processing. In other words, this file contains the calibrated M1 – M5, M7 and M13 dual gain band data from the nadir and near-nadir zones that would otherwise be discarded following post-calibration aggregation/Earth View Radiometric Calibration Unit. The Level-1 and Level-2 swath products are generated from the processing of 6 minutes of VIIRS data acquired during theJPSS-2/NOAA-21 satellite overpass. The VIIRS sensor has 5 high-resolution imagery channels (I-bands) that have 32 detectors (32 rows of pixels per scan), with twice the resolution of the M-bands and the DNB, that span the wavelengths from 0.640 µm to 11.45 µm. There are also 7 dual-gain VIIRS bands. The dual gain moderate resolution bands (M1 to M5, M7 and M13) have 6304 samples and the other moderate resolution bands have 3200.
