Description

These Landsat Collection 2 Tier 1 Level 2 composites are made from Tier 1 Level 2 orthorectified scenes.

The Normalized Difference Vegetation Index is generated from the Near-IR and Red bands of each scene as (NIR - Red) / (NIR + Red), and ranges in value from -1.0 to 1.0.

These composites are created from all the scenes in each 32-day period beginning from the first day of the year and continuing to the 352nd day of the year. The last composite of the year, beginning on day 353, will overlap the first composite of the following year by 20 days. All the images from each 32-day period are included in the composite, with the most recent pixel as the composite value.

Notes:

  • Only daytime images with WRS_ROW < 122 are included.

  • For Landsat 7 , images after 2017-01-01 are excluded due to orbital drift.

  • For Landsat 8, images before 2013-05-01 are excluded due to pointing issues.
