Product design
Given:
lat, lon, time, 4 parameters: Q – water vapor, W – cloud liquid, V – wind speed, T – temperature. This is for one swath, and we have 14 ascending and 14 descending swaths per day. Time is for a scan, pixels in scan are always 196, number of scans per swath is about 2000 and this varies from swath to swath.
