Field of Regard (FOR) and the radiances are Gaussian apodized. The CrIS instrument has a total of 1315 IR channels in 3 bands coveringlongwave (655-1095 cm-1), midwave (1210-1750 cm-1), and shortwave (2155-2550 cm-1) channels with spectral gaps between the bands. The instrument has 9 FOVs for each FOR and the radiances are Hamming apodized. The plot is generated from the first FOR of the granule 139 SDR file. Similar plots for each granule (the first FOR in the SDR files) can be viewed at the web site that is currently under construction (http://www.star.nesdis.noaa.gov/smcd/spb/iosspdt/iosspdt.php).
