Re: NPP files



Hi John - thanks for your help with this effort. Hopefully we can shake out most
of the key issues in the next few weeks.   More below...

sounds like the coordinates are in a seperate file. can you count on that? do you know the name?
Do you mean the geolocation coordinates? If so, I think we can count on them
being located in a different file.
is the file name derivable from the original name? where does that file come from?
It's my understanding we can't count on geolocation being in a separate 
file.  I believe it can
sometimes be a separate product group in the same HDF5 file, and 
sometimes a separate file.
I would hope we can derive the file name, but not certain yet.  As far 
as where the file comes
from - I'm pretty sure it just comes along for the ride whenever data is 
requested from the Data
Processing Center. 

I'll look into this more today, I'm still speculating on a lot of this.
