Topic Products and Algorithms / Satellite Data Access / Can't find checksums for SST data (2607 hits)

I can't find cheksums for MODISA/MODIST SST, NSST and SST4 daily data. For example, http://oceandata.sci.gsfc.nasa.gov/MODISA/Binned/Daily/2006/checksum.txt contains checksums only for regional SST data. Checksums files from different places, such as http://oceandata.sci.gsfc.nasa.gov/MODISA/L3BIN/2006/005/checksum.txt also does'nt contain sums for SST, NSST and SST4 files.

For some of the older SST files (for which we have yet to reprocess), we do not have checksums stored in the database.
When we reprocess the files, checksums will be generated and then available in the checksum.txt files.

When approximately will be this reprocessing? May be it is better for me to wait some time and not use current data.

There is no date planned, however there is work in progress. I expect that sometime within the next year we will reprocess SST.
I would not wait for that, however....
