MYD09GQ.005 Aqua Surface Reflectance Daily L2G Global 250m [deprecated]

  • The MODIS/MYD09GQ dataset provides daily surface reflectance data at a 250-meter resolution, corrected for atmospheric effects.

  • This dataset covers the globe from July 4, 2002, to March 30, 2017, and is provided by NASA LP DAAC.

  • It's important to note that this dataset is deprecated and has been superseded by a newer version, MODIS/061/MYD09GQ.

  • Users should consider using the updated dataset for the most recent and potentially improved data.

  • MODIS data and products, including MYD09GQ, are free to use, redistribute, and sell.

Description

The MODIS Surface Reflectance products provide an estimate of the surface spectral reflectance as it would be measured at ground level in the absence of atmospheric scattering or absorption. Low-level data are corrected for atmospheric gases and aerosols, yielding a level-2 basis for several higher-order gridded level-2 (L2G) and level-3 products.

MYD09GQ provides Bands 1 and 2 at a 250-meter resolution in a daily gridded L2G product in the Sinusoidal projection. Science Data Sets provided for this product include reflectance for Bands 1 and 2, a quality rating, observation coverage, and observation number. This product is meant to be used in conjunction with the MOD09GA where important quality and viewing geometry information is stored.
