AfSIS MODIS Collection: Land Surface Temperature, April 2014 Release
Listed in NASA Earthdata CMR
Description
The Africa Soil Information Service (AfSIS) Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) Collection's Land Surface Temperature data set contains rasters with the following calculations: time series average and time series monthly averages for day and night. These Africa continent-wide calculations use observations from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) MODIS MYD11A2 product. The rasters have an 8-day temporal resolution, a spatial resolution of 1 kilometer, and are updated quarterly by AfSIS using data provided by the Columbia University International Research Institute for Climate and Society (IRI) at iridl.ldeo.columbia.edu.
The data are available in Geographic Tagged Image File Format (GeoTIFF) from the Africa Soil Information Service (AfSIS).
