Hi,
I have  been trying to request for modis aqua level_1 data that lie between latitude 10 to -10 and longitude 30 to 45. From the brower, the area of seems to be right but the data I receive is reaches the -0.04 latitude. This was not the case before the new processing. Has someone abserved this?

Hi Jane,

I'm not quite sure I understand the problem you are
experiencing.  When I try a search, I get the expected
results which include regions south of 0.04 degrees
south latitude.

Hi Norman,

The search is as expected but once I click on the order, the delivered data is inconsistent.  For example 'A2011004104500.L1A_LAC.x.hdf ' covers the extent attached on this post when dipslayed on Seadas.

Hi Jane,

The parent file of the example you give just barely
reaches across the equator to 0.04 degrees South
(see the attached image).  If you need the data from
the same orbit that covers the region farther south,
then you will need to retrieve the scene that begins
five minutes earlier.

Thanks Norman. This should work....
