  • Update process of sending of File Transfer Notifications (FTNs) in order to improve distribution of GLM gridded data to AWIPS

  • Update to Product Distribution (PD) configurations for the Storage slot to allow for distribution of SpWx L1b products during checkout periods


ABI L1b and CMI

  • Increased control over the deployment of ABI Solar Calibration Target (SCT)-derived gains

  • Updates to the Temporary Dead-Row List (TDRL) algorithm in effort to reduce striping in ABI images


GLM L2+ (LCFA and Gridded Data)

  • Update the GLM L2+ geographic coverage extents provided in the product metadata to be the correct values

  • Permanently roll-in previous updates to reduce false lightning events for GLM LCFA product


SpWx L1b
