Description
Level 1D files contain a thumbnail image (PNG) for a stack of 8 slices for different latitudes of
brightness as a function of wavelength and tangent altitude. A new L1D file is generated for each new L1C file.
These correspond to either the Northern or Southern hemisphere. Stack of 8 slices for different latitudes of
intensity as a function of wavelength and altitude:
-Use the 8 latitudes that correspond to the scan hemisphere (since there are 16 latitudes per hemisphere,
2 latitude bins are co-added to get to 8 latitudes).
-Latitudes are +/- [0.625, 1.875, 3.125, 4.375, 5.625, 6.875, 8.125, 9.375]
