Hello, I opened up the internal metadata from that particular MCD43 file and is the input data (MOD/MYD09GA) that was used to process the granule. Please note that 16 days of both Terra ad Aqua 09GAs were used. Thanks, Brett OBJECT = INPUTPOINTER NUM_VAL = 200 VALUE = ("MYD09GA.A2024063.h25v07....

Hello,
Yes, the MODIS ALBEDO products are fully processed and ready to use. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.
Thanks,

Hi Duan, Sorry for the delay with the VIIRS processing. You are correct, they are not complete with the back processing, especially 2020 as several other products from that year need to be completed. We are not sure when that will be completed. At present VIIRS processing is on hold because of an is...

Hello,
There is no need for further manipulation, I am assuming you are referring to the MCD43A3 Albedo product: https://lpdaac.usgs.gov/products/mcd43a3v061/
They are good to just as they are. If you notice any value anomalies, you can always check the QA bits for the data.
Thanks,

Hello,
I don't believe it would be advisable or accurate to divide by 8. It is probably unlikely that each day of the 8-day period had the same GPP value. So, it would be best to leave it as 8-day cumulative.

Hi, Yes, could you email us through our LPDAAC email: lpdaac@usgs.gov It is a better way to set this up, we can then email a form for you to fill out. Basically, all we need is the product, your area of interest (preferably tile range), and the temporal period, which we can just leave open ended. Th...

Hi Mattia, Would like to be set up on a subscription so that when data is ingested into the archive it can automatically stage an order and send you a notification? Or it can also be set up to ftp push data directly to a server on your end. This will be available for the next 1-2 years as after that...

Hello, Negative values are common anomalies in Surface Reflectance data. These are generally caused by water. The atmospheric correction and surface reflectance retrieval algorithms are not ideal for water bodies due to the inherently low level of water leaving radiances and consequently very low SN...

Hello Joe
I will check into this particular granule. They are still considered 16 days, but it does not necessarily mean all 16 days of collections were able to be considered in each granule.
Thanks,
Brett

Hello,
The mean would be for the 8-day data sets, not the individual days within the 8-day products. Please let us know if you have any questions.
Thanks,
Brett
