MIRCCM_004 is the Multi-angle Imaging SpectroRadiometer (MISR) radiometric camera-by-camera Cloud Mask version 4 data product. It contains the Radiometric camera-by-camera Cloud Mask dataset. It determines whether a scene is classified as clear or cloudy. A new parameter has been added to indicate dust over the ocean. This version is used by MISR Product Generation Executable (PGE) 13. Data collection for this product is ongoing.

The MISR instrument consists of nine push-broom cameras that measure radiance in four spectral bands. Global coverage is achieved in nine days. The cameras are arranged with one camera pointing toward the nadir, four forward, and four aftward. It takes seven minutes for all nine cameras to view the same surface location. The view angles relative to the surface reference ellipsoid are 0, 26.1, 45.6, 60.0, and 70.5 degrees. The spectral band shapes are nominally Gaussian, centered at 443, 555, 670, and 865 nm.
MISR is designed to view Earth with cameras pointed in 9 different directions. As the instrument flies overhead, each piece of Earth's surface below is successively imaged by all nine cameras in 4 wavelengths (blue, green, red, and near-infrared). MISR aims to improve our understanding of the effects of sunlight on Earth and distinguish different types of clouds, particles, and surfaces. Specifically, MISR monitors the monthly, seasonal, and long-term trends in three areas: 1) amount and type of atmospheric particles (aerosols), including those formed by natural sources and by human activities; 2) amounts, types, and heights of clouds, and 3) distribution of land surface cover, including vegetation canopy structure.
This version of the ESDT is used by MISR PGE 13.
