Last update:March 9, 2015

Data Set Short Name:
MYDCSR_D

Data Set Long Name:
MODIS/Aqua Clear Sky Radiance Statistics Daily L3 Global 25km Equal Area

Platform:
Aqua

Instrument:
MODIS

Product Description:
The MYDCSR_D product contains global, 25-km resolution, daily average data composited from the 5-minute L2 MODCSR_G product. Nine clear-sky radiance and reflectance statistics (bands 1-7 and 17-36, see description of the MYDCSR_G product for description of statistics) are produced for day and night separately, including observed minus calculated data for bands 20, 22-25, and 27-36. Also included are numbers of land vs. water observations in each 25-km bin. Ideally, there are 288 5-minute granules of L2 data used as input to the MYDCSR_D process. One file is produced for each calendar day. The MYDCSR_D files are in Hierarchical Data Format(HDF).

Production Frequency:
1 file per day

Spatial Coverage:
Global

Spatial Resolution:
10km at nadir

File Size (MB):
~400
