Voyager Date issue - Maybe a mac thing?

Hi All, I can't seem to set a date in Voyager. It will let me open the calendar but not select a date. I am using a mac with google chrome so just wondering if it is a mac thing or if I am just not doing something obvious.

Hi Anonymous!

(please remember to sign in :-)).

Not sure, I don't have a Mac and have never run into that issue. Please send an email to nmfs.pic.satelliteclass@noaa.gov and ask if Dale could test it.
​​​​​​​Click on "link" in Voyager's top right corner, copy and paste in the email.

Thanks!

I was having the exact same issue - and am using a mac with Chrome. I did get it to allow me to select a date, however. Here's what I noticed. The tutorial said to select monthly Sept 2015 SST. I noticed that in the tutorial image, they had selected 30 September 2015 with "monthly" selected. If I select monthly first, then the calendar only displays one day per month (for Sep 2015, it's the 3rd, the rest are grayed out). If I select daily, I can choose any day. I did that and chose 30 Sep, then changed to monthly. It said it was unavailable and would display the closest date, which turned out to be 3 Sep.

Questions: how are monthly's calculated? For this example, the only Sep date was 3 Sep. Does that average the data for all of September, Sep 1 to 3, the 30 days flanking 3 Sep? Something else? Also, is it an average or some other way of composing the monthly data?

Hi Jason,

Dale can show you what he has on his Mac if needed.
​​​​​​​For the monthly composites, I just average all the daily files in each month. But you're right, the time stamps are weird. I will have to go back to the script I use to fix the way the time stamp is generated. Sorry about that.
