NOAA JPSS Cross-track Infrared Sounder (CrIS) Science Sensor Data Record (SDR) from IDPS

The Cross-track Infrared Sounder (CrIS) provides high resolution
infrared observations across the short-wave, medium-wave, and long-wave infrared
spectrum. This Sensor Data Record (SDR) from CRIS provides Level 1b calibrated and
geolocated radiance data produced from CrIS Raw Data Records (RDR). This operational
SDR is used to produce CrIS Environmental Data Records (EDR) for measuring
atmospheric temperature and moisture. CrIS SDR data obtained from the NOAA
Comprehensive Large Array-Data Stewardship System (CLASS) are distributed as
aggregated 8 minute files consisting of 15 granules in the Hierarchical Data Format
v.5 (HDF5) with metadata attributes included.
