SeaWiFs Project
- The purpose of the Sea-viewing Wide Field-of-view Sensor (SeaWiFS) Project is to provide
quantitative data on global ocean bio-optical properties to the Earth science community. Subtle
changes in ocean color signify various types and quantities of marine phytoplankton (microscopic
marine plants), the knowledge of which has both scientific and practical applications. The SeaWiFS
Project will develop and operate a research data system that will process, calibrate, validate,
archive and distribute data received from an Earth-orbiting ocean color sensor. A detailed
description of the objectives, organization and operations as well as the current status of the
SeaWiFS Project is available
