1. Introduction

1.1. Identification

This is the Preliminary Product Specification Document (PPSD) for Level 1 (A/B/C) data products of the NASA/JPL Surface Biology and Geology (SBG) Thermal Infrared (TIR) mission (aka “OTTER”). SBG-TIR L1 products provide corrected spacecraft attitude, calibrated at-sensor radiances and geolocation tags for pixel data acquired by the SBG-TIR radiometer instrument according to the algorithms described in the SBG-TIR L1 Geolocation Algorithm Theoretical Basis Document (ATBD) and the SBG-TIR L1 Calibration ATBD.

1.2. Purpose and Scope

The PPSD is an initial “Phase C” version of the Product Specification Document (PSD), describing the Standard and Low Latency Level 1 radiance, geolocation, and attitude products to be generated by the JPL SBG-TIR Science Data System (SDS). Preliminary descriptions are largely based upon TIR product knowledge and experiences obtained through the ECOSTRESS Mission (https://ecostress.jp.nasa.gov). The SGB-TIR mission is a cooperative effort with the Italian Space Agency (Agenzia Spaziale Italiana; ASI), which produces SBG-TIR platform metadata and three Visual and Near-Infrared (VNIR) bands. Descriptions of ASI L1 products as well as SBG-TIR Level 2, 3, and 4 products are covered in separate documents.

1.3. Mission Overview

NASA’s SBG mission is a “Designated Observable” (DO) identified in the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering and Medicine (NASEM) 2017 Decadal Survey. The Decadal Survey document presented a vision for combining the roles of visible-to-shortwave infrared imaging, spectroscopy, and multispectral or hyperspectral thermal infrared image data, in addressing terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems and other elements of biodiversity, geology, natural hazards, the water cycle, and applied sciences topics relevant to many areas with societal benefits. To best address the topics areas, the SBG mission has been divided into two separate satellite platforms, supporting 1) hyperspectral shortwave (SWIR) collections, and 2) multispectral thermal (TIR) collections.

The SBG-TIR portion of the mission includes the thermal infrared multispectral instrument, also known as OTTER (Orbiting Terrestrial Thermal Emission Radiometer), is built by the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory. The OTTER platform and VIREO (Visible InfraRed Earth Observing) camera subsystem are built by Italian Space Agency (Agenzia Spaziale Italiana; ASI). OTTER instruments will measure the emitted radiance of the Earth surface to better understand the dynamics of Earth’s changing surface geology and biology, focusing on ground/water temperature, snow reflectivity, active geologic processes, vegetation traits, and algal biomass. The collective SBG-TIR mission addresses these dynamic issues by accurately measuring the emitted radiance of Earth’s surface in the visual-infrared (VNIR), mid-infrared (MIR), and thermal-infrared (TIR) spectral regions using the two multispectral radiometers. The TIR instrument measures radiance data in eight spectral bands from 3.95 to 12.05 μm with approximately 60 meter spatial resolution at nadir and a nominal revisit time of 3 days at the equator. The VNIR instrument provides red (0.655 μm) and near-infrared (0.835μm) spectral bands at matching 60m resolutions, plus a third high resolution 30m/pixel panchromatic band (600-900μm).

1.5. SBG-TIR Data Products

SBG-TIR data processing is divided into “Levels” corresponding to product maturity. Level 0 (raw) data primarily consist of spacecraft packets that have been pre-processed by the Ground Data System (GDS). Level 1 provides calibration and geolocation products, including spacecraft engineering data, time-tagged raw sensor pixels (appended with their radiometric calibration coefficients), black body pixels (used to generate the calibration coefficients), geolocated and radiometrically calibrated at-sensor radiances and brightness temperature, and corrected spacecraft attitude data. Level 2 provides scientific-ready products such as the land surface temperature (LST) and emissivities of each spectral band retrieved from the at-sensor radiance data, and a cloud mask. Level 3 and L4 are more advanced scientific products derived from Level 2 and external ancillary data. A summary Product Grouping list is shown in Table 1-1.

Table 1-1: SBG-TIR Product Groups ![media/image8.png]

1.5.1. SBG-TIR Data Products

SBG-TIR Level 1 consists of three sub-parts A, B, and C. L1A is responsible for Radiometric Calibration involving the conversion of spectral DN to radiance. Radiance gain and offset coefficients for each spectral band are calculated and delivered to L1B, as described in the L1 Radiometric Calibration ATBD. L1A outputs are primarily engineering and archive products, and are not generally intended for public consumption.

L1B applies the L1A radiance coefficients to each spectral band, then performs a Geometric calibration using ASI-corrected spacecraft altitude/ephemeris, DEM (elevation), and a map-referenced global orthobase, to calculate the precise map coordinate for each spectral pixel and insure the alignment of TIR images with VNIR image products. The process is described in the L1 Geometric Calibration ATBD. L1B products are swath-based, calibrated Top-of-Atmosphere (TOA) radiance products (Radiance at Sensor), with precise pixel-level geolocation. Swath pixel alignments are closest to the original sensor collection. These scenes consist of 71 concatenated along-track scans (with each scan 256 lines by 15168 sample pixels) of the instrument mirror. Each scan requires approximately 0.38489 seconds of imaging time followed by 1.62811 seconds of travel time to the next scan-start position (2.013seconds total), producing a full image (granule) containing 18176 lines by 15168 samples with ~1 pixel scan overlap (at nadir) in 143.0 seconds. The resulting image granules cover approximately 985km swath width by 981km swath length. Each of the 14-15 daily orbits start at the equatorial crossing of the ascending SBG-TIR platform’s orbit (~12:30 pm local time). The subsequent L1B product contains up to eight MIR and TIR swath radiance bands geolocated with matching latitude and longitude pixel metadata files, providing foundational radiometric and georeferenced spectral inputs for Level 2+ science products. Note that L1B imagery are downloaded at 60m/pixel resolution for Land and Coastal areas, but most of the global Oceans and Antarctica are averaged (on-board) and downloaded at 960m/pixel. Different region/resolution images are stored in L1B as separate files with a “fill code” for dis-similar resolution data.

L1C products include two mid-wave bands (MIR) and six TIR wavelengths converted from L1B TOA Radiance (RAS) to TOA Brightness Temperature (BT) providing a total of eight L1C TIR products (ASI VNIR products are separate). L1C products differ significantly from L1B in that they are gridded (resampled) to a map projection. Generally, users focused on spectral accuracy would use the (unresampled) L1B products provided in NetCDF format. L1C gridded products are provided in Cloud Optimized GeoTIFF (COG) format which makes them convenient for direct use with geographic information systems. L1C gridded products will also come in different pixel resolutions due to on-board pixel averaging. Each along-track scan (defined above) is checked against an on-board “Land/Water ask” (Figure 1-0). 100% “water” scans and most of Antarctica are treated the same and averaged to 960m pixels. A scan with (at least) one “land” mask pixel will be downloaded at the nominal 60m/pixel resolution (including a few special 60m “land” sities in Antarctica). During ground processing, when the 71 scans are combined into a full scene, variable resolution scans are expected to be provided as multiple separate L1B layers, but for L1C, Land and Coastal areas will be gridded into 60m Tiles with NaNs for non-land scans, and the Oceans/Antarctica products will be gridded as Full Scenes with all data (including land) resampled to 960m. To reduce the geometric distortions associated with latitude, Land and Coastal collections imaged at 60m pixel resolution will be gridded as L1C “Tile” products in UTM projection. These approximate 110x110km tiles follow the “Sentinel-2 Tiling Grid” design which divides the world (n84 to s80) into 60 separate projection zones (each +/-6 degrees of the Zone’s Central Meridian) to preserve shape across latitudes. However, 960m Ocean and Antarctica imagery will not follow the “Tile” scheme because of their low resolution (and subsequent small size), and will be provided as full scenes. These gridded full scenes will utilize the Geographic (Latitude/Longitude) projection except at the poles where they will be provided in Polar Stereographic projection. Ocean/Antarctica images crossing the n60/s60 latitude transition boundaries will be processed in both projections. Associated polar metadata coordinate files will be provided in both Polar Stereographic (Northings/Eastings) and Latitiude/Longitude coordinates. See Section 3 for detailed descriptions of the Level 1 products.

1.5.2. ASI-Supplied Inputs to Level 1 TIR

The Italian Space Agency (Agenzia Spaziale Italiana; ASI) manages the SBG-TIR spacecraft platform and Visual Near-Infrared (VNIR) instrument co-boresited with the JPL-built and managed TIR instrument. ASI provides GRI-corrected orbital and geolocation (attitude and ephemeris) metadata (for L1B products), plus their L1B/L1C VNIR 30m and 60m radiance products. The expected daytime inputs (and day/night platform metadata) from ASI include:

Platform Uncorrected and Corrected Ephemeris and Attitude Metadata (Day/Night)
- Attitude/quaternion
- Attitude/time_j2000
- Ephemeris/eci_position
- Ephemeris/eci_velocity
- Ephemeris/time_j2000
- Quaternion Format: "NAIF/SPICE"
Orbital GRI-Corrected Ephemeris and Attitude/Timing Metadata (Day)
- Attitude/quaternion
- Attitude/time_j2000
- Ephemeris/eci_position
- Ephemeris/eci_velocity
- Ephemeris/time_j2000
- Quaternion Format: "NAIF/SPICE"
VNIR Camera Model (for reference)
VNIR Level 1B Radiance (Geolocated; Swath format) -- NetCDF format
- Three daytime TOA Radiance Bands (30m PAN and 60m VNIR resolution)
VNIR Level 1B Geolocation Swath Metadata -- NetCDF format
- Latitude; Longitude; Elevation/Height; Pixel Time of Acquisition (or equivalent)
VNIR Level 1C Radiance (Geolocated; Map Projected format) -- GeoTIFF Images
- Three daytime TOA Bands (30 and 60m resolution) gridded images and tiles
VNIR Level 1C Tile and Scene Metadata -- GeoTiff auxillary format

1.5.3. Level 1 Standard Day, Night, and Low Latency Products

The three ASI-provided VNIR radiance bands will only be generated during the day. The daytime “Standard” products are expected to be processed and delivered within 72 hours of their collection. However, a special subset of L1 products will be generated within 24 hours of collection to meet special time-critical science requirements. These “Low Latency” products will be processed using separate ASI and JPL production lines, and will not include VNIR inputs. Therefore, they will differ slightly from the subsequent Standard products, and may not be archived after serving their short-term purposes. In addition, SBG-TIR nighttime products will not contain the 10.3µm TIR band (due to download volume restrictions). Figure 1-1 shows the Standard processing flow for SBG VNIR and TIR L1 standard daytime products, and can be compared with the equivalent Low Latency product flow (Figure 1-2).

Figure 1-1: SBG-TIR Level 1 Standard Products Data Flow

![media/image6.png]

Figure 1-2: SBG-TIR Level 1 Low Latency Products Data Flow

![media/image2.png]

Table 1-2 provides a summary of the interplay between Standard and Low Latency products and Day versus Night processing. In addition, the following comments are provided for clarification:

SBG-TIR L1B and L1C do not contain VNIR images.
L1C Standard Daytime products are spatially aligned with VNIR data (but Not L1C Night or Low Latency products).
L1B contains (and L1C inherits) orbital correction metadata from ASI for Standard Daytime products, but not for Night or Low Latency products.
L1B Night/Low Latency geolocation will use a derivative of the JPL Landsat7 TIR orthobase (as aligned/enhanced to match the European Sentinel-based Global Reference Image), while ASI will use the Sentinel GRI RED band for its' daytime VNIR processing.

1.5.4. Level 1 Intermediate and Distributable Products

In addition to the previously discussed L1B and L1C products, there are a number of intermediate files. For example, the L1A_RAW_PIX and L1A_BB files are scene-specific extracts of orbital spectral and metadata designed for input to the L1A Calibration PGE. In turn, the L1A PGE outputs the L1A_PIX archive file containing all pre-processed calibration inputs ready for any future re-calibration. Table 1-3 provides a summary of Level 1 intermediate and distributable products.

Table 1-3: Level 1 Intermediate and Distributable Products

L1A_ENG	Spacecraft orbital and instrument engineering data, including blackbody gradient coefficients and orbital timing
L1A_BB	Scene-specific instrument blackbody calibration pixels and timing

1.5.5. Level 1 PGE Overview

Level-1 products are produced in a series of PGE (Product Generation Executive) steps as shown in Figure 1-3. The L1A_RAW PGE is responsible for extracting raw spectral density numbers (DN), blackbody DNs, and blackbody temperatures from orbital stream data into scene-specific files. The L1A_CAL PGE pre-processes raw scene-specific inputs into a calibration-ready form for (1) DN-to-Radiance calibration (see L1 Calibration ATBD) and (2) archiving (L1A_PIX; Table 3-11). Output radiance gain and offset coefficients are passed via the L1A_RAD_GAIN file (Table 3-13) to the L1B PGE. Note that L1A image bands are not co-registered (pixel-aligned) at this stage of processing. Band alignment (a minor polynominal adjustment) occurs along with other L1B pre-processing steps to align swath lines in a consistent manner. The L1B PGE then geolocates each individual swath radiance pixel and outputs matching Latitude and Longitude (and other) swath raster files. This geolocation process involves creating an intermediate geographic-projected (gridded) radiance file using the camera model, corrected ephemeris from ASI (Section 1.5.2) and/or the local TIR platform metadata, digital elevation model (DEM), and TIR orthobase (for co-registration matching). The swath radiance bands are output in the L1B_RAD product file (Table 3-4) with the matching swath geolocation (latitude and longitude) data output in the L1B_GEO product file (Table 3-7). These products are finally combined and gridded to 60 meters/pixel and output via the L1C_GRIDDING PGE as COG (Cloud Optimized GeoTiff) files.

2. Data Product OrganIzation

2.1.Distributed File Formats

SBG-TIR image products are distributed in either of two formats: “Network Common Data Form 4” (netCDF-4), or “Cloud-Optimized GeoTIFF” (COG). Only the L1A, L1B and L2 swath products are provided in netCDF format as these foundational products are primarily intended for long-term scientific archiving. Most users are expected to utilize L1C and L2-L4 products in the map-projected (gridded) COG format.

2.1.1. NetCDF4 Format

“NetCDF (Network Common Data Form) is a set of software libraries and machine-independent data formats that support the creation, access, and sharing of array-oriented scientific data.” The format is managed by Unidata for the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (NCAR), https://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf/, and extensively documented in the NetCDF Users Guide at https://docs.unidata.ucar.edu/nug/current/index.html. NetCDF files have the “.nc” file extension, and are compatible with a number of common access tools including NetCDF Viewer, Panoply, ArcGIS, Python (netCDF4-python; PyNIO module), and others. Many linux systems also have the command line “ncdump -h file.nc” tool installed. NetCDF4 filed also contain extensive metadata as described (by product file) in Section 3.

2.1.2. COG Format

Analysis-ready SBG products are distributed in a gridded and tiled form using the COG (Cloud Optimized GeoTiff) format https://www.cogeo.org/. While COG files are typically larger than regular GeoTIFF files, they have the ability to adjust viewing scales and more efficiently stream only the required portions of an image file. COG files use the same “.tif” suffix as regular GeoTiff files.

SBG L1CG gridded products are COG-formatted multi-band files in latitude/longitude map-projection. SBG L1CT files are COG-formatted image sub-tiles based on a modified form of the Military Grid Reference System (MGRS) tiling scheme as defined by NASA (https://hls.gsfc.nasa.gov/products-description/tiling-system/) and the ESA Sentinel-2 UTM grid (https://eatlas.org.au/data/uuid/f7468d15-12be-4e3f-a246-b2882a324f59). These tiles divide Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) zones into square tiles 109800 m across, using a 60m cell size with 1830 rows by 1830 columns, totaling ~3.35 million pixels per tile. This allows the end user to assume that each 60 meter SBG pixel will remain in the same location at each timestep observed in analysis. The COG format also facilitates end-user analysis as a universally recognized and supported format, compatible with open-source software, including QGIS, ArcGIS, GDAL, the Raster package in R, rioxarray in Python, and Rasters.jl in Julia.

Each SBG gridded or tiled COG product additionally contains a rendered browse image in GeoJPEG format with a .jpeg extension. This image format is universally recognized and supported, and the files are compatible with Google Earth. Each collection of tiled files also includes a separate .json file containing the Product Metadata and Standard Metadata in JSON format for the parent image granule.

Table 3-5: Data Quality Values $$^{1}$$ Push-Whisk sensor bands don’t image a particular cross scan pixel at the same time. After band coregistration to the reference band, the difference can be large enough that the spacecraft has moved enough to miss a pixel at the edges of the scanner. Also, at extreme viewing angles, high elevation terrain may obscure adjacent/behind data.

Gridded Product Data (COG)

Algorithm Description

The L1C gridded (projected) products are processed by ingesting the L1B and L2 CLOUD swath products, geolocating them using the L1B GEO product, and resampling them by nearest neighbor to a globally snapped 0.0006° grid. The L1B RAD products are resampled and repackaged as L1CG BT products, and contain the cloud mask from L2 CLOUD as a quality layer. The L1CT BT tiled products are subset from the gridded product and resampled to the 60m UTM Sentinel grid. ASI-provided VNIR radiance products are passed through unchanged.

3.4.2 L1CG/L1CT Brightness Temperature (BT) Products

The L1CG BT (gridded/map-projected) and L1CT BT (gridded/tiled) products distribute SBG top-of-atmosphere Brightness Temperature via the “bt” layers. The QC flags from the L1B RAD swath product are resampled here as “data_quality” layers. The L1B data quality flags are defined in Table 3-6 (above). The dataset name, data type, and units of each data layer in the TIR L1CG RAD and L1CT RAD Brightness Temperature products are listed in Table 3-9.
