It is different from previous operational ice-sheet altimeters in that it is a photon-counting LIDAR. ATLAS records a set of arrival times for individual photons, which are then analyzed to derive surface, vegetation, and cloud properties. ATLAS has six beams arranged in three pairs, so that it samples each of three reference pair tracks with a pair of beams; ATLAS transmits pulses at 10 kHz, giving approximately one pulse every 0.7 m along track; ATLAS's expected pointing control will be better than 90 m RMS.</gco:CharacterString> </gmi:description> <gmi:mountedOn xlink:href="#ICESAT_2_PLATFORM_ID"/> </eos:EOS_Instrument> </gmi:instrument> <gmi:operation> <!-- MI_Operation is expected to be here by the Base Reference Metadata Model document--> <gmi:MI_Operation> <gmi:description> <gco:CharacterString>ICESat-2 &gt; Ice, Cloud, and land Elevation Satellite-2</gco:CharacterString> </gmi:description> <gmi:citation> <gmd:CI_Citation> <gmd:title> <gco:CharacterString>ICESat-2 &gt; Ice, Cloud, and land Elevation Satellite-2</gco:CharacterString> </gmd:title> <gmd:date gco:nilReason="unknown"/> </gmd:CI_Citation> </gmi:citation> <gmi:identifier> <gmd:MD_Identifier> <gmd:code> <gco:CharacterString>ICESat-2</gco:CharacterString> </gmd:code> <gmd:description> <gco:CharacterString>Ice, Cloud, and land Elevation Satellite-2</gco:CharacterString> </gmd:description> </gmd:MD_Identifier> </gmi:identifier> <gmi:status> <gmd:MD_ProgressCode codeList="http://cdn.earthdata.nasa.gov/iso/resources/Codelist/gmxCodelists.xml#MD_ProgressCode" codeListValue="underDevelopment">underDevelopment</gmd:MD_ProgressCode> </gmi:status> <gmi:parentOperation gco:nilReason="inapplicable"/> <gmi:platform xlink:href="#ICESAT_2_PLATFORM_ID"/> </gmi:MI_Operation> </gmi:operation> <gmi:platform> <eos:EOS_Platform id="ICESAT_2_PLATFORM_ID"> <gmi:citation> <gmd:CI_Citation> <gmd:title> <gco:CharacterString>ICESat-2 &gt; Ice, Cloud, and land Elevation Satellite-2</gco:CharacterString> </gmd:title> <gmd:date gco:nilReason="unknown"/> </gmd:CI_Citation> </gmi:citation> <gmi:identifier> <gmd:MD_Identifier> <gmd:code> <gco:CharacterString>ICESat-2</gco:CharacterString> </gmd:code> <gmd:description> <gco:CharacterString>Ice, Cloud, and land Elevation Satellite-2</gco:CharacterString> </gmd:description> </gmd:MD_Identifier> </gmi:identifier> <gmi:description> <gco:CharacterString>Spacecraft</gco:CharacterString> </gmi:description> <gmi:instrument xlink:href="#ATLAS_INSTRUMENT_ID"/> </eos:EOS_Platform> </gmi:platform> </gmi:MI_AcquisitionInformation> </gmi:acquisitionInformation> </gmi:MI_Metadata> </gmd:seriesMetadata> </gmd:DS_Series> (Type is String)

If blowing snow is detected and its estimated optical depth is greater than or equal to 0.5, then msw_flag = 5. If the blowing snow optical depth is less than 0.5, then msw_flag = 4. If no blowing snow is detected but there are cloud or aerosol layers detected, the msw_flag assumes values of 1 to 3 based on the height of the bottom of the lowest layer: < 1 km, msw_flag = 3; 1-3 km, msw_flag = 2; > 3km, msw_flag = 1. A value of -1 indicates that the signal to noise of the data was too low to reliably ascertain the presence of cloud or blowing snow. We expect values of -1 to occur only during daylight.

If no blowing snow is detected but there are cloud or aerosol layers detected, the msw_flag assumes values of 1 to 3 based on the height of the bottom of the lowest layer: < 1 km, msw_flag = 3; 1-3 km, msw_flag = 2; > 3km, msw_flag = 1.

If blowing snow is detected and its estimated optical depth is greater than or equal to 0.5, then msw_flag = 5. If the blowing snow optical depth is less than 0.5, then msw_flag = 4. If no blowing snow is detected but there are cloud or aerosol layers detected, the msw_flag assumes values of 1 to 3 based on the height of the bottom of the lowest layer: < 1 km, msw_flag = 3; 1-3 km, msw_flag = 2; > 3km, msw_flag = 1. A value of -1 indicates that the signal to noise of the data was too low to reliably ascertain the presence of cloud or blowing snow. We expect values of -1 to occur only during daylight.

      • description: The starting geolocation segment number associated with the data contained within this granule. ICESat granule geographic regions are further refined by geolocation segments. During the geolocation process, a geolocation segment is created approximately every 20m from the start of the orbit to the end. The geolocation segments help align the ATLAS strong a weak beams and provide a common segment length for the L2 and higher products. The geolocation segment indices differ slightly from orbit-to-orbit because of the irregular shape of the Earth. The geolocation segment indices on ATL01 and ATL02 are only approximate because beams have not been aligned at the time of their creation. (Type is String)

If no blowing snow is detected but there are cloud or aerosol layers detected, the msw_flag assumes values of 1 to 3 based on the height of the bottom of the lowest layer: < 1 km, msw_flag = 3; 1-3 km, msw_flag = 2; > 3km, msw_flag = 1.
