The SeaWiFS Deep Blue (SWDB) Level 2 Product contains data corresponding to a single SeaWiFS swath using Deep Blue algorithm. There are about 15 Level 2 data files produced per day. Each contains retrieved aerosol properties averaged to a resolution of 3x3 SeaWiFS pixels (13.5x13.5 km at the center of the swath given 4.5km SeaWiFS pixels). The primary data parameters are aerosol optical thickness, and Angstrom exponent.
