The Land Processes Distributed Active Archive Center (LP DAAC) has released an expansion of the Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) Version 2 Bidirectional Reflectance Distribution Function (BRDF), Nadir BRDF-Adjusted Reflectance (NBAR), and Albedo data products from the NOAA-21 satellite.
These VJ243Ds accompany other BRDF and Albedo products (VJ243IA, VJ243DNBA, VJ243MA, VJ243C) that were previously released. This release includes 89 data products projected on the Climate Modeling Grid (CMG) at 30 arc-second spatial resolution.
