VIIRS L2 banding issue

I downloaded Level-2 viirs data, but got severe banding issues for a significant portion of granules. The width of bands WITHOUT data is about 1/3 to 1/2 of the width of bands WITH data. Wondering what they were?

If you are talking about missing data on the outside 1/2 ish of each scan, that is a "feature" of VIIRS. The overlapping data of the bowtie region of the scan is not transmitted from VIIRS to the ground. If you map the data you will get complete spacial coverage.
