Summary
Abstract: The Land Information System (LIS) provides collection of sample data for
demonstration of LIS code. The original source of each data set is given
whenever possible. LIS does not endorse the validity, completeness, or
usefulness of the data sets. Users are strongly recommended to compile and
validate their own data sets based on their scientific goals. LIS has the
built-in flexibility for users to ... View entire text

METEOR-3 Ancillary Description
Quality Since TOMS on Meteor-3 was launched in a 212 day precessing polar orbit, the local equator crossing changes with time. Consequently no data were retrieved when the instrument was viewing near the morning or evening terminator. The table below lists the periods when high quality data are available:

08/22/1991 - 09/02/1991
10/26/1991 - 12/17/1991
02/09/1992 - 04/02/1992
05/26/1992 - 07/01/1992
08/31/1992 - 11/09/1992
12/16/1992 - 02/24/1993
04/01/1993 - 06/10/1993
07/17/1993 - 09/25/1993
10/31/1993 - 01/09/1994
02/14/1994 - 04/25/1994
