    MODIS/Terra+Aqua Surface Reflectance (Bands 1-7) from MAIAC, Daily L3 Global 0.05Deg CMG V061

    Metadata Updated: February 22, 2025

    The MCD19A1CMGL Version 6.1 data product is a Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) Terra and Aqua combined Multi-Angle Implementation of Atmospheric Correction (MAIAC) Surface Reflectance Level 3 (Bands 1-7) product produced daily in a 0.05 degree (5,600 meters at the equator) Climate Modeling Grid (CMG). The MCD19A1CMGL product is corrected for atmospheric gases and aerosols using a new MAIAC algorithm that is based on a time series analysis and a combination of pixel- and image-based processing. The MODIS MAIAC products provide an estimate of the surface spectral reflectance, also referred to as Bidirectional Reflectance Factor (BRF), as it would be measured at ground-level in the absence of atmospheric scattering or absorption. The Surface Reflectance dataset includes BRF, BRF normalized to a fixed geometry of solar zenith angle at 45° and nadir view, and Nadir Bidirectional Reflectance Distribution Function (BRDF)-Adjusted Reflectance (NBAR) normalized to the nadir view and local sun angle at 1:30 pm.

    The MCD19A1CMGL MAIAC Surface Reflectance product for land bands includes 25 Science Dataset (SDS) layers: BRF for bands 1-7, BRF normalized to a fixed geometry for bands 1-7, NBAR for bands 1-7, Quality Assessment (QA) bits, cosine of solar zenith angle, cosine of view zenith angle, and relative azimuth angle. A low-resolution browse is also included.
