Description

Level 1D files contain a thumbnail image (PNG) for individual nightside disk scans using the low
resolution slit for Solar Zenith Angle (SZA). Separate files are created for Channel A and Channel B data.
A new L1D file is generated for each new L1C file. These can correspond to either the Northern or Southern
hemisphere. Individual file definitions (image size = 512 x 512 pixels).SZA solar zenith angle map is at
the reference altitude of 150 km.
