Learn How to Use SeaDAS with Docker for Ocean Color Data Analysis

SeaDAS is a comprehensive software package for the processing, visualization, analysis, and quality control of ocean color and other relevant satellite remote sensing Earth science data available through NASA's Ocean Biology Distribute Active Archive Center (OB.DAAC). The SeaDAS software consists of two primary parts: the SeaDAS Desktop Application, which is mostly for image visualization and analysis, and the SeaDAS-Toolbox, which contains the SeaDAS scientific processors along with a GUI interface.
It has been difficult to effectively employ SeaDAS with the scientific processing capabilities on Windows PCs since these processors can only be installed on Linux or MacOS (Intel) platforms. The solution was a client-server approach, which allowed the physical decoupling of the SeaDAS-Toolbox and the scientific processing package. Docker Image capabilities have been introduced to the most recent version of SeaDAS to facilitate the scientific processing package distribution and configuration.
In this webinar, we will present an overview of the SeaDAS data application, key features and functionalities, the technological stack it employs, its intended applications, and an introduction to and the advantages of Docker in SeaDAS distribution. We will show participants how to install SeaDAS with Docker at the conclusion of the webinar.

I spend days making setting up the OCSSW server in WSL without any luck. This fixed my issue in 20 min. Thank you very much.

hi can you please tell me that the command which is running in the video, how to run that command in window 10. thanks

[@ghanouneddjar8590]

Finaaaaaaaally ,,, a setup tutorial for the processors , Thanks a lot.

Thanks for sharing. Can we use the ocean data from the Nasa website for writing publications?

[@NASAEarthdata]

Yes, you can. Here is a link to the NASA OB.DAAC data citation policy: oceancolor.gsfc.nasa.gov/citations/

The level 2 output file never auto-populates for me when I try to input the level 1 file, is there a way around this?

[@uma9183]

Please make video on SeaDas software, we are waiting for explore more options through seadas

[@mohdhassanin8292]

how to run the command in window 10. I tried in command promp but I didn't get it. Thanks

Any chance at a Singularity version of the file or access to the Dockerfile? I tried using the Docker image and all files/dirs are owned by root, which isn't Singularity/Apptainer friendly: singularity shell -B $HOME/ocssw:/root/ocssw -B $HOME/seadasClientServerShared:/root/seadasClientServerShared docker://seadas/ocssw-run:1.0 INFO: Using cached SIF image Singularity> ls -l /root total 15157 drwxr-xr-x 7 root root 245 Dec 15 2021 jre1.8.0_321 drwxr-xr-x 2 me user 4096 Jun 30 11:57 ocssw -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 40960 Mar 11 2022 ocssw.db -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 266 Mar 11 2022 ocsswserver.config -rw-rw-r-- 1 root root 15469807 Dec 8 2022 seadas-ocsswserver.jar drwxr-xr-x 2 me user 4096 Jun 30 11:57 seadasClientServerShared
