GOES-SST Programmers Reference Manual

SST calculated from the IR channels of GOES-11 at full resolution on a half hourly basis. In raw satellite projection, vertically adjacent pixels averaged and read out at every pixel L2P data products are then derived following the GHRSST-PP Data Processing Specification (GDS) version 1.5 available from http://ghrsst-pp.metoffice.com/documents/GDS-v1.0-rev1.5.pdf. Single Sensor Error Statistics (SSES) are provided based on the GDS-v1.5 specification.
