Abstract | Introduces the L3 Monthly Burned Area (MCD45A1) product. |
Problem Statement | Errors of commission occurring after rainfall events. Note, the burned areacode has never been run on a global data set in any collection in MODAPS,consequently there will be no interruptions in the burned area productcontinuity as a result of this change. Also, there are no downstream dependencies. |
Description of Change | Updated code to fix an error of commission in the mapped burned areas by including a thermal wavelength test and reduced buffer block size to accommodate required extra band of input data. |
Products Affected | L3 Monthly Burned Area (MCD45A1) |
Software Affected | PGE86 |
Processing String to Receive the Change | Terra Reprocessing |
Downstream Product Effects | None. |
Data Granules to be Used for Science Testing | |
Justification | This code update is essential, needed to remove falsely flagged burned areas. |
Effective Date for Implementation of Change | Data day 2000-049 for C5 Terra Reprocessing. |
Status | PI approved. Sadashiva Devadiga approved for Land, Vincent Salomonsom approved on 12/17/06. |
