VIIRS/JPSS1 BRDF/Albedo Nadir BRDF-Adjusted Ref Daily L3 Global 1km SIN Grid V002

The NOAA-20 Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) Nadir Bidirectional Reflectance Distribution Function (BRDF) Adjusted Reflectance (NBAR) Version 2 product provides NBAR estimates at 1 kilometer (km) resolution. The VJ143IA4 product is produced daily using 16-day VIIRS data and is weighted temporally to the 9th day, which is reflected in the file name. The view angle effects are removed from the directional reflectances resulting in a stable and consistent NBAR product. The VJ143 data products are designed after the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) BRDF/Albedo product suite to promote the continuity of the Earth Observation System (EOS) mission. The VJ143 data products are designed to promote the continuity of NASA’s Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) BRDF/Albedo data product suite.
