Provisional HLS Version 1.5

Data products from the HLS version 1.5 collection are consider provisional. What does it mean when a data product is provisional?

The HLS version 1.5 collection has been labeled as provisional because the data products continue to go through incremental product improvements and have not yet been validated for their science quality. These data should not be used in science research or applications. HLS version 1.5 will soon be replaced by a new version that will meet science quality standards. However, by making these provisional data products available, the science community has a unique opportunity to provide feedback on the data prior to a vetted, science quality, data release. Users are encouraged to submit feedback or questions to the LP DAAC User Services or post to the Earthdata Forum.
