Topic Special Topics / Ocean Color Reprocessing / Conversion of SSt and Chla data from HDF to NetCDF possible? (locked)
Hello:
I have been away from OceanColor for a while (since 2013) and now realized that the files extension for AQUAMODIS SST and Chla have changed. Is it a way to convert the files I have download previously to the new format (.nc) or will I have to download them again (since 2002)? If I have to download them is there a way to do it in a batch mode (due to the ammount of data it will take a lot of time to do it again).
Sorry if these questions are very basic but I would really appreciate some help.
Kind regards
Silvia

Hi Silvia,
The format change you noted also came along with data
changes as part of our Reprocessing 2014.0. The only
way to get those changes is by re-downloading the data.
You can find some suggestions for downloading our data
in bulk here.
