| Abstract | PGE86 V51.0.2 is an updated version with bug fix. |
| Problem Statement | 1) bug in the handling of thermal data, 2) omission errors in forested areas, 3) omission errors in agricultural areas |
| Description of Change | 1) bug fixed, 2) band 6 inversion inhibited, after verification that the areas with omission did not show a significant change in band 6 post-fire, 3) introduction of additional spectral tests to avoid commission errors 4)use of C5.1 MCD12 instead of C4 MOD12 5)output format chance, with the elimination of the bit-packed SDSs, replaced by standard, non compressed SDSs for the storage of the data gap information |
| Products Affected | MCD451, MCD45A2 |
| Software Affected | PGE86 v51.0.2 |
| Processing String to Receive the Change | Terra Forward, Terra Reprocessing, Aqua Forward, Aqua Reprocessing |
| Downstream Product Effects | None. |
| Data Granules to be Used for Science Testing | Generated 1 year of global data from year. Test run at MODAPS and test result evaluated by the Science Team and LDOPE. |
| Justification | Quality assessment of an extensive test dataset (1 year global dataset) and comparison with reference data showed improvement of the results, with reduced omission errors. |
| Effective Date for Implementation of Change | Completed. |
| Status | Science test completed; results evaluated by the LDOPE and SCF. Sadashiva Devadiga approved on 02/27/2013. Michael King approved on 07/12/2012. |
