1) MERIS Smile Correction Tool: A processor which performs a correction of the
"smile effect" for MERIS L1b radiances.
2) VISAT Virtual Band Support: New bands can now be created based on an

3) VISAT RGB Image Support: The source of each of the three RGB channels can
be any band in a product, even a virtual band. Constrast stretching is
possible for each of the RGB channels also changing the source. Default
RGB sources can be edited in the preferences dialog.
