Hi there,  
New HARP user, loving the ease of using HARP for TROPOMI.  
I’m having trouble with reading in OMI aerosol data though, specifically the ‘OMI-Aura\_L2G-OMAERUVG’ files. I get an ‘unsupported product’ error.  
I am following the Use Case mentioning OMI NO2, but swapping for the relevant aerosol optical depth variables and correct file names.  
Any suggestions on how to proceed?

- Thanks

HARP does not support the L2G files. It only supports the ‘regular’ L2 files.  
So if you want to use HARP for processing, please download the L2 products.
