Apparently hdfscan is not yet publicly available... there is another simpler
way, not widely known. The UNIX command "strings" can be used directly
on the HDF files to dump out the annotation text along with other unwanted stuff.
pipe it to "grep MISR" or similar to list the desired filenames. (Believe
it or not this feature was intentional). For example (on a subsetted dataset,
though a full swath would also work, just take longer):
