Product Summary

MESSR/MOS-1 L2 Data is obtained from the MESSR sensor onboard MOS-1, Japan's first marine observation satellite, and produced by the National Space Development Agency of Japan:NASDA. MOS-1, Japan's first marine observation satellite, is Sun-synchronous sub-recurrent Orbit satellite launched on February 19, 1987 as a link in a global satellite observation system for more effective natural resource utilization and for environmental protection. The MESSR is multi-spectral radiometers and has swath of 100 km.
This dataset includes radiometric and geometric corrected applied raw data.
Map projection is UTM, SOM, PS. The provided format is CEOS. The spatial resolution is 50 m.
