Hello It has not been processed for clouds and snow. Pixel level QA information from clouds are stored in the MOD09GA 1KM State flags. MODIS Surface Reflectance does not view cloud pixels as bad but rather a state of being. So it collects the reflectance off of cloud tops or snow just as it would dr...

Hello,
Sorry for the delay on this. We were in contact with the Ecostress Science team, and we are quite sure this is a cloud top issue. I double checked with MODIS data for that time an area and MODIS called it fill because of cloud issues
Thanks,

Hi Julio, Ideally,it is best to use the same version, however for now there really is no other choice. When there is coverage from both Versions for you area of interest you may want to make a comparison just to check if there is much difference. The algorithm changes made between the versions were ...

Hello,
Thanks for the heads up on this issue. They should all now be available through CMR also. Before they were only in the LPDAAC Data Pool but they are available in the cloud also. Thanks for your patience.

Hello, This can be done using the Earthdata Search Tool: https://search.earthdata.nasa.gov/search You can enter your Gedi data set and select a date range, it will return all collected granules that fit your search parameters. You may also want to take a look at this: https://openaltimetry.org/data/...

Good Morning,
We might have some alternative options also, what specific data product are you working with?
Thanks,

Hello Unfortunately, we do not have a tutorial for working with MCD19A2 data currently. But you can try the code below. make sure you are using the correct group for this dataset. For this dataset "grid1km" and "grid5km" are valid inputs for "group". you can also choose...

Hi,
I am sorry, I am not exactly sure what the issue is, were you expecting the statistics in the tiff metadata file?
Thanks,

Good morning,
Sorry for the download issues. We had been experiencing server issues, but all should be fine now. Please give it a try and let us know if it is still being a pain, Thanks for your patience.

Hi Jennifer, We were able to get the answer straight from the MODIS Science Team, and following is what they said: "If smoke/dust is tested for a given pixel, these bits will be set. Different AOD types correspond to different AOD model used in the algorithm, we use these terms interchangeably....
