It provides a measurement of surface vegetation\ncoverage activity, gridded at a resolution of 0.05° and computed globally\nover land surfaces.\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/Normalized_Difference_Vegetation_Index/AVHRR/AlgorithmDescriptionAVHRR_01B-20b.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 | Units | Min | Max | Scale | Pixel Size | Description |\n|-------------|-------|---------|--------|--------|------------|----------------------------------------|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|\n| `NDVI` | | -9998\\* | 9998\\* | 0.0001 | meters | Normalized difference vegetation index |\n| `TIMEOFDAY` | h | 0\\* | 2400\\* | 0.01 | meters | Hours since start of day |\n| `QA` | | | | | meters | Quality control bit flags |\n| Bitmask for QA - Bit 0: Unused - 0: No - 1: Yes - Bit 1: Pixel is cloudy - 0: No - 1: Yes - Bit 2: Pixel contains cloud shadow - 0: No - 1: Yes - Bit 3: Pixel is over water - 0: No - 1: Yes - Bit 4: Pixel is over sunglint - 0: No - 1: Yes - Bit 5: Pixel is over dense dark vegetation - 0: No - 1: Yes - Bit 6: Pixel is at night (high solar zenith) - 0: No - 1: Yes - Bit 7: Channels 1-5 are valid - 0: No - 1: Yes - Bit 8: Channel 1 value is invalid - 0: No - 1: Yes - Bit 9: Channel 2 value is invalid - 0: No - 1: Yes - Bit 10: Channel 3 value is invalid - 0: No - 1: Yes - Bit 11: Channel 4 value is invalid - 0: No - 1: Yes - Bit 12: Channel 5 value is invalid - 0: No - 1: Yes - Bit 13: RHO3 value is invalid - 0: No - 1: Yes - Bit 14: BRDF correction is invalid - 0: No - 1: Yes - Bit 15: Polar flag, latitude over 60 degrees (land) or 50 degrees (ocean) - 0: No - 1: Yes ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||\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\".
