Description
This gap-filled Tasseled Cap Brightness (TCB) dataset was created by applying the tasseled-cap equations defined in Lobser and Cohen (2007) to MODIS BRDF-corrected imagery (MCD43B4). The resulting data were gap-filled using the approach outlined in Weiss et al. (2014) to eliminate missing data caused by factors such as cloud cover, and then the data were aggregated temporally and spatially to produce the monthly ≈5km product.
This dataset was produced by Harry Gibson and Daniel Weiss of the Malaria Atlas Project.
