| Abstract | PGE61 v6.0.4 Code changes to update the metadata and loader module to read the C6 inputs, generate coarse resolution data and browse image files. |
| Problem Statement | Generate the VCF product in the Collection 6 |
| Description of Change | Updated the C51 version of the PGE61 to generate the C6 VCF products with code changes needed to: 1. read in and process the C6 input reflectance product 2. update metadata to reflect collection related changes, and include DOI fields 3. generate coarse resolution tiles and browse image files 4. Patched to change LongName from 500m to 250m, 3/7/17 |
| Products Affected | MOD44B |
| Software Affected | PGE61 v6.0.4 |
| Processing String to Receive the Change | Terra Forward Processing and Reprocessing |
| Downstream Product Effects | None. |
| Data Granules to be Used for Science Testing | Process global data for a year and compare to the operational C51 product |
| Justification | Though there isn't any science change to the operational code, improvements are expected from changes in the upstream reflectance products. Reprocessing is required to generate the VCF product for inclusion in the C6 suite of land products generated using the suite of upstream C6 science algorithms. |
| Effective Date for Implementation of Change | Completed. |
| Status | Major algorithm development completed. Sadashiva Devadiga approved on 02/23/2017. Michael King approved 02/28/2017. |
