Version Summary
- Updated photon heights to include time-dependent range bias. The mean offset between ATL03 version 4 and version 5 photon heights is on the order of 1.2 cm. See more details in the user guide and/or ATBD for this data product.
- Added XML metadata to indicate the percentage of each surface type within a granule.
- Updated podppd_flag to include identification of ATLAS calibration periods.
- Updated the default uncertainty values to represent the current best estimates.
- Improved the TEP flagging.
- Implemented some bug fixes including updates in the photon selection algorithm, calculation of the neutral atmosphere delay derivative and quality_ph flagging improvements.
