This dataset is derived from the NOAA AVHRR Surface\nReflectance product and is gridded at a resolution of 0.05° on a daily\nbasis. The values are computed globally over land surfaces, but not over\nbare or very sparsely vegetated areas, permanent ice or snow, permanent\nwetland, urban areas, or water bodies.\n\nKnown issues with this dataset include:\n\n- TIMEOFDAY variable contains values that are too large by 1 day\n\n- Latitude values are not correctly associated with the center of\n the grid cell, error is \\\u003c 0.002 degrees\n\n- Longitude values are not correctly associated with the center of\n the grid cell, error is \\\u003c 0.02 degrees\n\nSee [technical note from the data provider](https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/pub/data/sds/cdr/CDRs/Leaf_Area_Index_and_FAPAR/AVHRR/AlgorithmDescriptionAVHRR_01B-20c.pdf).\n\nProvider's note: the orbital drift of N-19 (the last NOAA satellite\ncarrying the AVHRR sensor) began to severely degrade the retrieved\nproduct quality. Therefore, VIIRS is now the primary sensor being used for\nthese products from 2014-present.\n\n### Bands\n\n\n**Pixel Size**\n\n5566 meters\n\n**Bands**\n\n| Name | Min | Max | Scale | Pixel Size | Description |\n|---------|-----|--------|-------|------------|------------------------------------------------------|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|\n| `LAI` | 0\\* | 6205\\* | 0.001 | meters | Leaf area index |\n| `FAPAR` | 0\\* | 896\\* | 0.001 | meters | Fraction of absorbed photosynthetic active radiation |\n| `QA` | | | | meters | Quality control bit flags |\n| Bitmask for QA - Bits 0-1: Quality control - 0: Ok - 1: Input flags as cloudy - 2: Invalid input - 3: Output out of range - Bits 2-4: Associated class - 1: Needleleaf forest - 2: Broadleaf forest - 4: Grassland \\& croplands \\& non vegetated - 5: Evergreen broadleaf forest - 6: Water - Bit 5: BRDF corrected - 0: No - 1: Yes - Bits 6-7: Polygon test - 0: In polygon - 1: Not in polygon - 2: Not tested (water/cloudy) ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||\n\n\\* estimated min or max value\n\n### Image Properties\n\n**Image Properties**\n\n| Name | Type | Description |\n|--------|--------|------------------------------|\n| status | STRING | 'provisional' or 'permanent' |\n\n### Terms of Use\n\n**Terms of Use**\n\nThe NOAA CDR Program's official distribution point for CDRs is NOAA's\nNational Climatic Data Center which provides sustained, open access and\nactive data management of the CDR packages and related information in\nkeeping with the United States' open data policies and practices as\ndescribed in the President's Memorandum on \"Open Data Policy\" and pursuant\nto the Executive Order of May 9, 2013, \"Making Open and Machine Readable\nthe New Default for Government Information\".
