MODIS LAI scale factor in AppEEARS
Posted: Mon May 09, 2022 10:40 am America/New_York
Hi there,
I'm downloading some MODIS LAI data (MCD15A2H-006) at the point scale using AppEEARS (which is a great tool, by the way!) The MODIS documentation says a scale factor of 0.1 needs to be accounted for upon download. But I can't find any documentation about whether that scale factor is accounted for in the AppEEARS workflow? Given the LAI values I get, I suspect it is, but it would be great if someone can confirm. Because the scale factor is only 10x different, it's not completely obvious. I'm sorry if that information is available and I missed it.
Thanks a lot,
Mike
