Conterminous U.S. AVHRR Bi-Weekly Composites
Entry ID:
USAVHRR
Summary
Abstract:
The goal of the Conterminous U.S. AVHRR project is to compile a
comprehensive time series data set of calibrated, georegistered daily observations and biweekly maximum normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) composites for each annual growing season. This data set has applications for environmental monitoring and for assessing impacts of global climate ...
