Central Operations & Regional Nodes VIIRS ocean color data products are being processed by NOAA CoastWatch on an Experimental basis. Global 4km chlorophyll-a (single file) and 750m (24 sector tiles) and CONUS (CoastWatch regions) are produced daily. CONUS 750m products are available through the CoastWatch Data Access Search by selecting a CoastWatch region. Global 4km VIIRS products are also available through the interface by selecting 'global' region. Global 1 km sectors will be available by July 2013 via THREDDS. Sample global data products are available.

VIIRS ocean color IDPS EDRs are available by using the VIIRS Granule Locator. This near real-time tool uses interactive Google Maps to depict granule locations and quasi-true color image previews with download links to the corresponding dataset.
