The Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) 1-km Global Land 10-Day Composites data set project is a component of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) AVHRR Pathfinder Program. The project is a collaborative effort between the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), NASA, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), the European Space Agency (ESA), Australia's Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization (CSIRO), and 30 international ground receiving stations. The project represents an international effort to archive and distribute the 1-km AVHRR composites of the entire global land surface to scientific researchers and to the general public. The data set is comprised of a time series of global 10-day normalized difference vegetation index composites. The composites are generated from radiometrically calibrated, atmospherically corrected, and geometrically corrected daily AVHRR observations. The time series begins in April 1992 and continues for specific time periods.

The Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) is a four- or five-channel scanning radiometer capable of providing global daytime and nighttime sea-surface temperature and information about ice, snow, and clouds. The sensor measures emitted and reflected radiation in five channels (bands) of the electromagnetic spectrum. The Site Average Reflectances Extracted from AVHRR-LAC Imagery Data Set consists of averages of pixel extracts from AVHRR-LAC (1 km resolution) scenes that overlay the FIFE site. Average radiances for dates are available for the five sensor wavebands and average reflectance and exoatmospheric reflectances are available for wavebands 1 and 2. Site averages are clustered in 1987 and during the summer of 1989. Some data are also available for early 1988. The AVHRR is capable of operating in both real-time or recorded modes. Direct readout data were transmitted to ground stations of the automatic picture transmission (APT) class at low-resolution (4x4 km) and to ground stations of the high-resolution picture transmission (HRPT) class at high resolution (1x1 km). Data recorded on board were available for processing in the NOAA Central Computer Facility. They included local area coverage (LAC) data which were from selected portions of each orbit with a 1x1 km resolution. The precision of satellite remote sensing estimates of surface reflectance (Hall et al., 1992), calibrated and corrected for atmospheric effects, was no worse than about 1 percent absolute.
