Level 2 products from the MODIS Collection 4 Atmosphere reprocessing campaign will be removed from the LAADS archive on August 1, 2007. This is in keeping with EOSDIS policy that products from an older reprocessing can be deleted 6 months after the completion of a newer version. The first Collection 5 Atmosphere reprocessing was completed January 19, 2007. The Level 3 Atmosphere products from Collection 4 will be retained in the LAADS archive to allow researchers to compare these products with those from the Collection 5 reprocessing campaign.
While the majority of recent orders for Level 2 Atmosphere products have been for Collection 5 products, some orders continue to be received for products produced with the older Collection 4 algorithms. If you need Level 2 products from the Collection 4 reprocessing, please order them by July 20, 2007.
Please note that products from the Collection 5 reprocessing incorporate the latest algorithm improvements from the MODIS Atmosphere Science Team. These products are described in detail at: http://modis-atmos.gsfc.nasa.gov/.
