MODIS Combined 16-Day EVI [deprecated]

  • This dataset, providing the Enhanced Vegetation Index (EVI) from MODIS surface reflectance composites, is superseded by MODIS/MCD43A4_006_EVI.

  • The dataset offers 8-day cadence global data from February 18, 2000, to March 14, 2017.

  • The EVI band measures vegetation index and ranges from -1.0 to 1.0 with a pixel size of 463.313 meters.

  • MODIS data and products acquired through the LP DAAC have no restrictions on subsequent use, while Earth Engine is free for research, education, and nonprofit use.

Description

The Enhanced Vegetation Index (EVI) is generated from the Near-IR, Red and Blue bands of each scene, and ranges in value from -1.0 to 1.0. See Huete et al. (2002) for details. This product is generated from the MODIS/MCD43A4 surface reflectance composites.
