Data DescriptionATMS SDR Products (ATMS_SDR) - The Advanced Technology Microwave Sounder (ATMS) is a cross-track microwave sounder providing atmospheric temperature and moisture observations for weather and climate applications. Level-1b Sensor Data Records (SDRs) from ATMS are the calibrated and geolocated radiance and reflectance data produced from ATMS Raw Data Records. This data family includes ATMS science SDRs and geolocation SDRs. The ATMS SDR (SATMS) provides radiance measurements at a nadir resolution of 15.8 - 74.8 km. The ATMS Remapped to CrIS SDR (SATMR) provides radiance measurements remapped to observations obtained from the Cross-track Infrared Sounder (CrIS). These SDRs provide key input for the production of atmospheric sounding Environmental Data Records (EDR). ATMS SDR data obtained from the NOAA Comprehensive Large Array-Data Stewardship System (CLASS) are distributed as aggregated 8 minute files consisting of 15 granules in the Hierarchical Data Format v.5 (HDF5) with metadata attributes included.
