Summary
Abstract:
This data set consists of satellite measurements of global ocean color data
obtained by the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS), in orbit on the Aqua (formerly EOS PM) platform. MODIS ocean color products are processed and distributed by the Ocean Biology Processing Group (OBPG). Processing details can be found at http://oceancolor.gsfc.nasa.gov/DOCS/MODISA_processing.html ...

Quality
In the early years, the data set had 500-600 routes. There are now more
than 3000 routes. These routes are checked manually and computer edits performed. However, when there were only 500 routes, this was easier to accomplish. The computer performs edits for computational errors, species range errors. Print outs are sent back to original observer to verify.
