Products Impacted: Operational CoastWatch ocean color products
Date/Time of Outage: N/A (administrative notice)
-----------------------------------------
Details:
To simplify data access controls, CoastWatch ocean color products are
now
available from two separate Okeanos ftp servers, one with restricted
access (ftp://okeanos.noaa.gov/pub/)
and one without restricted access (ftp://ftpoceanwatch.noaa.gov/pub/).
Products with unrestricted access (derived from MODIS/Aqua) are available from a single consolidated directory at: ftp://ftpoceanwatch.noaa.gov/pub/data_products/modis.
If you prefer to access the MODIS products by
level and file
type, go to ftp://ftpoceanwatch.noaa.gov/pub/modis/.
There you will find subdirectories by level (L1, L2, L3 and L4). In all
these
subdirectories there is an /hdf subdirectory for CoastWatch HDF format
files;
for L3 and L4 there are also subdirectories for image files (/browse,
/thumb,
and /tiff).
Products with restricted access (derived from SeaWiFS/OV-2 or MERIS/Envisat) are available from a single consolidated directory at:
ftp://okeanos.noaa.gov/pub/data_products/seawifs/ or ftp://okeanos.noaa.gov/pub/data_products/meris/.
(You must be an authorized SeaWiFS or MERIS user to access these areas.)
If you prefer to access the SeaWiFS or MERIS
products by
level and file type, go to:
ftp://okeanos.noaa.gov/pub/seawifs/
or
ftp://okeanos.noaa.gov/pub/meris/,
where you will find the same subdirectory structure described
above.
