Browse of VIIRS SNPP AS5000

This web page contains global browse images of selected products generated at Land Science Investigator-led Processing System (SIPS). These browse images are generated from the coarse resolution (5km) version of the products generated by resampling the full resolution data products. The coarse spatial resolution products are projected into a global coordinate system defined with pixel sizes corresponding to 20km in the Hammer-Aitoff projection. These global browse images are generated with fixed contrast stretching and color look-up tables to enable consistent temporal comparison. This web interface has been developed to support interactive selection of browse products and zooming at 5km resolution. This web interface has been developed to support interactive selection of browse products and zooming at 5km resolution. Full spatial resolution are also available in golden tile time series.

Note

• The global browse images available on this web site should not be used for scientific analyses.
• Every effort is being made to populate this web page with the browse images of products in real time with the operational processing at SIPS. Browse images could potentially contain data gaps and missing days at random since coarse resolution data of products could be received out of sequence at LDOPE and processed immediately. These data gaps or any image discrepancies should not be misconstrued as data loss or bad quality data, instead users are requested to check the Known Issue page for LDOPE's summary from review of data for data loss, production error and other quality issues.
• NASA LandSIPS is not producing the operational S-NPP VIIRS Burned Area product (VNP64A1), as part of its Collection 1 (C1) processing. A provisional version of this product is available, over just two tiles (h08v05 and h31v10), for the entire S-NPP mission period, for C1. Hence, this product is not shown as part of the LDOPE operational browses for S-NPP C1 processing.
