ASTER Global Emissivity Dataset, 1 kilometer, HDF5 V003

The Terra Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer (ASTER) Global Emissivity Dataset (GED) land surface temperature and emissivity (LST&E) data products are generated using the ASTER Temperature Emissivity Separation (TES) algorithm with a Water Vapor Scaling (WVS) atmospheric correction method using Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) MOD07_L2 atmospheric profiles and the MODerate Spectral resolution TRANsmittance (MODTRAN 5.2) radiative transfer model. This dataset is computed from all clear-sky pixels of ASTER scenes acquired from 2000 through 2008. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration’s (NASA) Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), California Institute of Technology, developed the ASTER GED product.Known Issues* Known issues are provided in Section 4 of the User Guide.Improvements/Changes from Previous Versions* Includes data for the entire globe.* Includes the mean climatology of all ASTER data for the specific temporal extent.
