MODIS Workshop on
Land
Surface Radiation Budget Variables and Snow and Ice
Products 21 - 22 October, 2002 Boston University - George Sherman Union
Student Center Lounge - Lower Level 775 Commonwealth Avenue Boston, Massachusetts
Workshop Objectives
This workshop gave the user community a comprehensive
overview of the status of the MODIS Land
Surface Temperature Products, the
MODIS Surface Reflectance Products, the
MODIS BRDF/Albedo Products and the MODIS Snow and Ice Products.
The MODIS Land Science team and relevant EOS DAACs covered the
step-by-step details of the processing, distribution,
analysis and interpretation of these standard
MODIS data products. Coarser resolution
versions of these products for global modeling are now available
and were described and discussed.
In addition, the workshop featured a session of tutorials on
data ordering, reprojection, reformatting and other technical tools.
The meeting ended with a Poster Session on Land Product Validation
and Utilization held jointly with the
CEOS/WGCV
Land Product Validation (LPV) Workshop on Albedo which
took place immediately following this workshop at Boston University
on October 22-24, 2002.
