The value is stored in the MISR Ancillary Geographic Product (AGP), of which there are 233 unique files, one for each of the World Reference System-2 (WRS-2) paths. Like the L1B2 products, these are divided into blocks, and the fields within the “Standard” grid of the AGP are provided at 1.1-km sampling. The average elevation over a 1.1-km grid sample are provided in the “AveSceneElev” field. AGP files can be obtained from the MISR Order and Customization Tool and through the ASDC Data Pool.
