VIIRS/NPP Snow Cover 6-Min L2 Swath 375m V002
Listed in NASA Earthdata CMR
This data set reports snow cover using radiance data acquired by the Visible Infrared Imager Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) on board the Suomi National Polar-orbiting Partnership (NPP) satellite.
Description
Snow cover is identified using the Normalized Difference Snow Index (NDSI) and a series of quality control screens.
