NOAA JPSS Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) Global and Regional Level-3 Green Vegetation Fraction (GVF) from NDE

This Level-3 (L3) Environmental Data Record (EDR) provides Global (4 km) and Regional (1 km) Green Vegetation Fraction (GVF) detected with the Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) onboard the Suomi-NPP and NOAA-20 satellites. This weekly product is used as an input to land surface models and numerical weather predicton (NWP) models. The data are produced by the NOAA Environmental Satellite, Data, and Information Service (NESDIS) and is distributed by the Comprehensive Large Array-Data Stewardship System (CLASS) in the NetCDF-4 file format with metadata attributes included.

本三级环境数据记录（Level-3，L3，Environmental Data Record，EDR）提供了搭载于Suomi-NPP与NOAA-20卫星的可见光红外成像辐射仪套件（Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite，VIIRS）所探测获取的全球（4 km）与区域（1 km）尺度绿色植被覆盖比例（Green Vegetation Fraction，GVF）数据。
该周度产品可作为陆面模型与数值天气预报（Numerical Weather Prediction，NWP）模型的输入参数。
本数据集由美国国家海洋和大气管理局（National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration，NOAA）下属的环境卫星、数据与信息服务局（Environmental Satellite, Data, and Information Service，NESDIS）制作，并由综合大型阵列数据管理系统（Comprehensive Large Array-Data Stewardship System，CLASS）以附带元数据属性的NetCDF-4文件格式进行分发。
