Das Datenprodukt „Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) Leaf Area Index (LAI) and Fraction of Photosynthetically Active Radiation (FPAR) Version 1“ (VNP15A2H) enthält Informationen zur vegetativen Kronenschicht mit einer Auflösung von 500 Metern. Der VIIRS-Sensor befindet sich an Bord des gemeinsamen NOAA/NASA-Satelliten Suomi National Polar-Orbiting Partnership (Suomi NPP). Der LAI ist ein Index, der die einseitige Blattfläche eines Blätterdachs quantifiziert, während der FPAR der Anteil der eingehenden Solarenergie ist, die durch die Photosynthese bei 400 bis 700 Nanometern absorbiert wird. Dieses Produkt wurde bewusst nach dem operativen Algorithmus für LAI/FPAR des Terra- und Aqua-Satelliteninstruments MODIS (Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer) entwickelt, um die Kontinuität der EOS-Mission (Earth Observation System) zu fördern.
1: Hauptmethode (Reichweite und Häufigkeit) mit Sättigung. Gut, sehr nutzbar.
2: Die Hauptmethode (RT) ist aufgrund einer schlechten Geometrie fehlgeschlagen. Es wurde ein empirischer Algorithmus verwendet.
3: Die Hauptmethode (RT) ist aufgrund von Problemen, die nicht mit der Geometrie zusammenhängen, fehlgeschlagen. Es wurde ein empirischer Algorithmus verwendet.
4: Pixel wurde nicht produziert, Wert konnte nicht abgerufen werden
