Why does the EO-1 Scene ID list a path and row that is different than the path and row of the center part of the image?
EO-1 imagery is collected based on a targeted center point. The path and row listed in the Scene ID represents when the EO-1 instruments began imaging, even though the target point may fall in the next row. In the diagram below, the coordinates for Target 2 fall within the WRS row below that of the coordinates for Target 1. However, since the instruments began imaging Target 1 and Target 2 in the same path/row, both images would have the same Target WRS path and Target WRS row in the Scene ID. EO-1 is not able to image both targets on the same date; therefore, the difference in the Scene IDs would show up in the Julian day of acquisition.
