The VIIRS/JPSS2 Imagery Resolution 6-Min L1B Swath 375m, short-name VJ202IMG is the Joint Polar-orbiting Satellite System-2 (JPSS-2/NOAA-21; referred to hereafter as J2) platform-derived NASA Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) L1B calibrated radiances product that comprise five image-resolution or I-bands, which have a 375-meter resolution at nadir. These I-bands comprise three reflective solar bands (RSB) and two thermal emissive bands (TEB). Each of the I-bands has 32 detectors in the along-track direction with 32 rows of pixels per scan that offer a resolution that is twice finer than that of the moderate (M) and Day-Night bands (DNB). Ranging in wavelengths from 0.6 µm to 12.4 µm, the I-bands are sensitive to visible/reflective, near-, shortwave-, mediumwave-, and longwave-infrared wavelengths.

The J2 VIIRS radiometric calibration Level-1B reprocessing includes a few calibration updates for the reflective solar bands (RSB), but no significant changes for the day-night band (DNB) or thermal emissive bands (TEB). For more information and documents, visit LAADS product page at:
