VIIRS Snow and Sea Ice data Customization

VIIRS swath data customization options are now available at the NASA National Snow and Ice Data Center Distributed Active Archive Center (NSIDC DAAC). VIIRS 6-minute swath (VNP10, VNP29, & VNP30) datasets use algorithms specifically designed to be compatible with MODIS Terra and Aqua Version 6 datasets.

In addition, data customization options for VIIRS are similar to MODIS and include subsetting, reformatting, and reprojection. These options are provided by NASA Earthdata Search or can also be accessed programmatically.
