The scope of this work is to detail the efforts needed (from a technical perspective) to allow for Levell to Level 3 Planet “Planet Scope” and “Super Dove” nanosatellite data processing within the Naval Research Laboratory's Automated Processing System (APS). APS, built upon NASA's SEADAS codeset, is used to ingest multi- and hyper-spectral remote sensing data from continuously imaging ocean color sensors to automatically produce numerous products of interest to Navy and commercial operations. The main steps involved in configuring APS to accomplish this task consist of creating Aerosol and Rayleigh tables, determining center wavelengths for each band based on relative spectral response functions, duplicating the red-edge band to be used for atmospheric correction, generating Level 1B files, atmospherically corrected Level 2 files that contain various ocean color products, and mapped Level 3 files.
