Retrievals are performed but flagged as questionable over urban areas, mountainous areas with high elevation variability, and areas with high ( &gt; 5 kg/m**2) vegetation water content; for retrievals using the high-resolution radar, cells in the nadir region are also flagged. Retrievals are inhibited for permanent snow/ice, frozen ground, and excessive static or transient open water in the cell, and for excessive RFI in the sensor data. eastBoundLongitude Float32 180. westBoundLongitude Float32 -180. southBoundLatitude Float32 -85.04450226 northBoundLatitude Float32 85.04450226 rangeBeginningDateTime String 2015-07-07T00:00:00.000Z rangeEndingDateTime String 2015-07-07T23:59:59.999Z QADatasetIdentification fileName String SMAP_L3_SM_A_20150707_R13080_001.qa abstract String An ASCII product that contains statistical information on data product results.
