Summary
Abstract: This product has been discontinued.

The MODIS/Aqua Surface Reflectance State Daily L2G Global 1km SIN Grid product, MYD09GST, is a restructured version of the quality data in level-2 surface reflectance. MYD09GST summarizes the quality of the MYD09 products, including atmospheric and other correction states. The product specifically contains information pertaining to cloud and cloud shadow, land and water designations, aerosols, and the data source of corrections performed on the file. MYD09GST contains three Science Data Sets (SDSs); reflectance data state quality assurance, the number of observations, and observation coverage for each pixel.
