MODIS/Aqua Surface Reflectance Daily L2G Global 250m SIN Grid V006
Listed in NASA Data Portal
Description
The MYD09GQ Version 6 data product was decommissioned on July 31, 2023. Users are encouraged to use the MYD09GQ Version 6.1 data product. The MYD09GQ Version 6 product provides an estimate of the surface spectral reflectance of Aqua Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) 250 meter (m) bands 1 and 2, corrected for atmospheric conditions such as gasses, aerosols, and Rayleigh scattering.
Along with the 250 m bands are the Quality Assurance (QA) layer and five observation layers. This product is intended to be used in conjunction with the quality and viewing geometry information of the 500 m product (MYD09GA).

Known Issues
* The Collection 6 MODIS Land Surface Reflectance product (MYD09) may incorrectly flag retrievals as ‘High Aerosol’ over brighter surfaces and at higher view angles. This will impact the downstream MODIS BRDF/Albedo (MCD43) and Vegetation Index (MOD13 and MYD13) data products which use the aerosol quantity flag to screen out high aerosol values.
- Corrections were implemented in Collection 6.1 reprocessing.
- For complete information about known issues please refer to the MODIS/VIIRS Land Quality Assessment website.
