SeaDAS is more general than the SeaWiFS data processing system and provides interfaces which allow the user to control the input parameters of the processing programs. It is a production system designed for data types, data rates, reprocessings, computer systems, and manpower that are beyond the requirements of SeaWiFS data users. The defaults used by the SeaDAS programs will match the parameters used by the SeaWiFS production processing system. HRPT data and LAC data have the same format and the same resolution. They are different, however.
HRPT data is broadcast continuously by the satellite for reception by the HRPT stations.
It is lost unless it is received by a ground station or recorded. The highest priority for using LAC recording space will be for calibration purposes. SeaDAS will automatically place your windows for you conveniently if you allow it to. You must tell your window manager to allow applications to place their own windows. Restart your window manager.
