AI-generated Key Takeaways
-
Several VIIRS nighttime lights datasets are available, including annual composites for different year ranges and monthly composites.
-
The annual datasets are time series derived from monthly cloud-free average radiance grids.
-
Monthly datasets provide average radiance composite images but may have incomplete global coverage for a given month.
-
All VIIRS datasets utilize data from the Day/Night Band (DNB) sensor.
-
Daily gridded VIIRS DNB data is also available, providing global measurements suitable for various applications.

VIIRS Nighttime Day/Night Annual Band Composites V2.1
Annual global VIIRS nighttime lights dataset is a time series produced from monthly cloud-free average radiance grids spanning 2013 to 2021. Data for 2022 are available in the NOAA/VIIRS/DNB/ANNUAL_V22 dataset. An initial filtering step removed sunlit, moonlit and cloudy pixels, leading to rough composites that … annual dnb eog lights nighttime noaa -
VIIRS Nighttime Day/Night Annual Band Composites V2.2
Annual global VIIRS nighttime lights dataset is a time series produced from monthly cloud-free average radiance grids for 2022. Data for earlier years are available in the NOAA/VIIRS/DNB/ANNUAL_V21 dataset. An initial filtering step removed sunlit, moonlit and cloudy pixels, leading to rough composites that contains … annual dnb eog lights nighttime noaa -
VIIRS Nighttime Day/Night Band Composites Version 1
Monthly average radiance composite images using nighttime data from the Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) Day/Night Band (DNB). As these data are composited monthly, there are many areas of the globe where it is impossible to get good quality data coverage for that month. … dnb eog lights monthly nighttime noaa -
VIIRS Stray Light Corrected Nighttime Day/Night Band Composites Version 1
Monthly average radiance composite images using nighttime data from the Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) Day/Night Band (DNB). As these data are composited monthly, there are many areas of the globe where it is impossible to get good quality data coverage for that month. … dnb eog lights monthly nighttime noaa -
VNP46A1: VIIRS Daily Gridded Day Night Band 500m Linear Lat Lon Grid Night
The Suomi National Polar-orbiting Partnership (SNPP) Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) supports a Day-Night Band (DNB) sensor that provides global daily measurements of nocturnal visible and near-infrared (NIR) light that are suitable for Earth system science and applications. The VIIRS DNB's ultra-sensitivity in lowlight … daily dnb nasa noaa population viirs
