Mosaic

[cortivo]

Hi.
The problem is: (step by step)

1) Images: A2003001173500.L2_LAC_OC.nc A2003005185000.L2_LAC_OC.nc A2003001191000.L2_LAC_OC.nc  A2003006175000.L2_LAC_OC.nc  A2003006175500.L2_LAC_OC.nc A2003002164000.L2_LAC_OC.nc  A2003007165500.L2_LAC_OC.nc A2003002181500.L2_LAC_OC.nc  A2003007170000.L2_LAC_OC.nc A2003002182000.L2_LAC_OC.nc  A2003007183500.L2_LAC_OC.nc A2003003172000.L2_LAC_OC.nc  A2003008174000.L2_LAC_OC.nc A2003003172500.L2_LAC_OC.nc 
A2003003190000.L2_LAC_OC.nc  A2003004180500.L2_LAC_OC.nc A2003005171000.L2_LAC_OC.nc A2003005184500.L2_LAC_OC.nc

2) Area: [37S 40S] x [60W 54W] (Argentina coast), pixel size square by 0.05° (the default option in seadas GUI)

There are differences in the chlor_a and chl_ocx when I perform the mosaic with Seadas GUI and by command line.

The command line used: gpt.sh -q 12 -e mosaico.xml -Ssource=`cat files.txt` -t mosaic.L3_OC.nc -f netCDF4-CF

files.txt is a text file that contains the name of the L2 files that must be used to create the mosaic

Am I doing something wrong?

Another question. I noted that where there are NO DATA seadas puts 0(zero) instead NaN...
How can I change it?

I get a match when running gpt and GUI mode (I just tested the first 6 files from your list)

It does look like this part of your command line isn't working as you are expecting:
-Ssource=`cat files.txt`

Try this command line instead so all the files get sent in directly on the command line:
gpt.sh -q 12 -e mosaico.xml `cat files.txt` -t mosaic.L3_OC.nc -f netCDF4-CF

Regarding the NaN question.  The concept of NaNs is triggered off of the count bands (for instance chlor_a is tied to chlor_a_count).  Using a valid pixel expression of "chlor_a_count > 0" for the chlor_a band is how this is handled in SeaDAS. 

Another way to merge level2 files is with the OCSSW components of SeaDAS (l2bin followed by l3mapgen).

Hi.
Thanks for your answer.
Using your command line suggestion it works!
