Snow cover over eight\ndays is mapped as maximum snow extent in one SDS and as a chronology of\nobservations in the other SDS. Eight-day periods begin on the first day of\nthe year and extend into the next year. The product can be produced with\ntwo to eight days of input. There may not always be eight days of input,\nbecause of various reasons, so the user should check the attributes to\ndetermine on what days observations were obtained.\n\n- [General documentation](https://doi.org/10.5067/MODIS/MOD10A2.061)\n- [User's Guide](https://modis-snow-ice.gsfc.nasa.gov/uploads/snow_user_guide_C6.1_final_revised_april.pdf),\n\n### Bands\n\n\n**Pixel Size**\n\n500 meters\n\n**Bands**\n\n| Name | Min | Max | Pixel Size | Description |\n|------------------------|-----|-----|------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|\n| `Maximum_Snow_Extent` | 0 | 255 | meters | Maximum snow extent observed over an eight-day period. |\n| `Eight_Day_Snow_Cover` | | | meters | Snow chronology bit flags for each day in the eight-day observation period. |\n| Bitmask for Eight_Day_Snow_Cover - Bit 0: day 1 - Bit 1: day 2 - Bit 2: day 3 - Bit 3: day 4 - Bit 4: day 5 - Bit 5: day 6 - Bit 6: day 7 - Bit 7: day 8 ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||\n\n**Maximum_Snow_Extent Class Table**\n\n| Value | Color | Description |\n|-------|-------|--------------------|\n| 0 | None | Missing data |\n| 1 | None | No decision |\n| 11 | None | Night |\n| 25 | None | No snow |\n| 37 | None | Lake |\n| 39 | None | Ocean |\n| 50 | None | Cloud |\n| 100 | None | Lake ice |\n| 200 | None | Snow |\n| 254 | None | Detector saturated |\n\n### Terms of Use\n\n**Terms of Use**\n\nYou may download and use photographs, imagery, or text\nfrom the NSIDC web site, unless limitations for its use are specifically\nstated.
