Greetings
We use NASA data (AQUA, VIIRS, VIIRSJ) in our CMEMS MULTI products for Mediterranean and Black Sea. Our code uses the Level 2 Browser (https://oceancolor.gsfc.nasa.gov/cgi/browse.pl) for selecting the granules for these basins before downloading them. But since 2024-07-09 we received a HTTP 404 Not Found Error when we run the code from our cloud server. However, the code works when we run it on a local machine. Is there any problem with the Level-2 Browser access?

In another post, I saw that this was being decommissioned. I believe you will need to create subscriptions for your areas of interest and then you can download these based on the subscription number. see this link for more information.

I would love it if they continued to provide the satellite track images as I use them on my status page to determine if the satellite has passed over the area of interest.

Hi,

The L1/L2 browser is not working for me. I get a 404 error at this link:
https://oceancolor.gsfc.nasa.gov/cgi/browse.pl?sen=amod

I have tried Firefox and Chrome. Someone mentioned this is being decommissioned? If so, how to spatially subset historical L2 data? I do use subscriptions for recent data. Thanks.

Sorry for the delay. We had an issue with the way that the L1/L2 browser was being run from one of our servers, which should now be resolved. Please let me know if https://oceancolor.gsfc.nasa.gov/cgi/browse.pl continues to 404 for you.

We do eventually intend to discontinue the L1/L2 browser, but this was an unrelated issue. By the way, we are also working on an alternative way of displaying the satellite's ground track, because that's a commonly used feature.
