datetime

path

/exposureAttribute/pointAttribute/Time[]

description

the record with year/month/day/hour/min/sec values is converted to a double precision floating point value that represents the amount of seconds since 2000-01-01 00:00:00

longitude

path

/exposureAttribute/pointAttribute/geometricInfo/centerLon[]

latitude

path

/exposureAttribute/pointAttribute/geometricInfo/centerLat[]

radiance

path

/Spectrum/SWIR/band1/obsWavelength[,1,,]

description

the radiance returned is the complex norm of the complex value that is stored in the product; in other words, what is returned is sqrt(real * real + imag * imag)

wavenumber

path

/exposureAttribute/pointAttribute/RadiometricCorrectionInfo/spectrumObsWavelengthRange_SWIR

description

the wavenumbers are calculated by evaluating the function a.x + b for x = 0 .. N-1 with a,b the wavelength range parameters in the product
