I want to obtain the vegetation index map for a date which lies in between the 16 day composite MODIS vegetation indices.
Ex- Let's say the MODIS (both terra and aqua) has 16 day composite images on 03/12/2017 and 19/12/2017. But I want to view the vegetation status for a date lies in between the above time range. So, how to obtain the same ?
Hi,
Well, as the name suggests '16 day composite', it is a composited dataset of all 16days. So, I do not think it is possible to retrieve one particular day data from a 16 day composite. You may either have to look for some other data product or have to compute, whatever parameter you're looking at, on your own!
Good Luck!
Hello, Akanksha Balha
Thank you so much for the response.
I will look into it.
I will suggest you visit "https://neo.sci.gsfc.nasa.gov/view.php?datasetId=MOD_NDVI_16&date=2018-07-01" to browse through the dates that are available so that you can adjust your dates to fit what is available for you to use.
I will recommend to access this link for download Modis data of your desired area and date (https://lpdaac.usgs.gov/data_access/daac2disk).
MODIS NDVI 16 day composite ID is MOD13A2 (terra) or MY13A2 (aqua).
P/s: dont forget to set up the folder for storing data from your web browser automatically. It's worth because I believe you dont want to click on the "OK" and "select folder" multiple times.
Dear Ayodele Agboola
Thanks a lot for the replay. But I think the data in the link is also the MODIS vegetation.
