MODIS/Terra Land Surface Temperature/Emissivity Daily L3 Global 0.05Deg CMG V006

The MOD11C1 Version 6 data product was decommissioned on July 31, 2023. Users are encouraged to use the MOD11C1 Version 6.1 data product. The MOD11C1 Version 6 product provides daily Land Surface Temperature and Emissivity (LST&E) values in a 0.05 degree (5,600 meters at the equator) latitude/longitude Climate Modeling Grid (CMG).

The MOD11C1 product is directly derived from the MOD11B1 product. A CMG granule follows a Geographic grid, having 7,200 columns and 3,600 rows, which represent the entire globe. Each MOD11C1 product consists of the following layers for daytime and nighttime observations: LSTs, quality control assessments, observation times, view zenith angles, number of clear-sky observations, and emissivities from bands 20, 22, 23, 29, 31, and 32 (bands 31 and 32 are daytime only) along with the percentage of land in the grid.
