I have finally figured out that l3mapgen has a small problem (or I'm missing something). When I generate a TIFF image with l3mapgen with:
I'm not clear on what values should exist to indicate not actual data values, but it would be convenient to be able to specify something like nodata=-32768 to override the default output. This would make it much easier to work with the gdal tools.
Below is a gdalinfo report of the tif.
Ideally, I want to use gdal_translate to set NODATA=-32768 but since there are other values near that like -32767 and maybe others this doesn't work. I was able to work around this issue with the following to set all values < -5 to -32768 and then asserting the NoDataValue=-32768.
Now gdalinfo on SST-out.tif report (truncated) is much more accurate WRT the actual data values:
