NPP data visualization in McIDAS-VNPP data visualization in McIDAS-V
We developed 3 main pieces to accomplish this
1)Data Chooser• Way to select data• Decide if all pieces needed are present
2)Data Source• Get selected data loaded, organized in memory• Apply metadata: geolocation, scales, offsets, etc.
3)Granule Aggregator• Time ordering of product granules• Cross-granule spatial sub-setting

NPP Data ChooserNPP Data Chooser
• Is there valid, displayable NPP data on this computer?
User navigates to data directory
If a file looks like an NPP Product, and…If we can find the associated geolocation data, and…
If we can find the associated XML Product ProfileYES, we can show this data
Assumption for now: All 3 pieces reside in current directory

Granule AggregatorGranule Aggregator
Lets user select arbitrary set of granules for display.
Once loaded, the full McIDAS-V capabilities are available, including:
• Sub-setting• Reprojecting• Formulas• Saving data

ConclusionsConclusions
• In a short time, we’ve added support for NPP data in McIDAS-V, a powerful, free, scientific data visualization and analysis software package.
• Details of how to access, select, and manipulate NPP data for use in McIDAS-V will be driven by the needs and desires of the user community.
