This gap-filled Tasseled Cap Wetness (TCW) dataset was created by applying
the tasseled-cap equations defined in Lobser and Cohen (2007) to
MODIS BRDF-corrected imagery (MCD43B4). The resulting data were
gap-filled using the approach outlined in Weiss et al. (2014) to eliminate
missing data caused by factors such as cloud cover. After gap-filling the data was clipped to thresholds of [-1, 2] to ensure valid values.
The gap-filled 8-daily ~1km outputs are then aggregated temporally to produce monthly and annual products.
