MASTER: Cloud And Land Surface Interaction Campaign, California-Oklahoma, 2007

This dataset includes Level 1B (L1B) and Level 2 (L2) data products from the MODIS/ASTER Airborne Simulator (MASTER) instrument. The spectral data were collected during two flights aboard a NASA ER-2 aircraft over California, Arizona, New Mexico, Texas, and Oklahoma, U.S., from 2007-09-20 to 2007-09-21. This data collection supported the Cloud And Land Surface Interaction Campaign (CLASIC), a cross-disciplinary interagency research effort to study cumulus convection as an important component in the atmospheric radiation budget and hydrologic cycle of the Southern Great Plains (SGP). Data products include L1B georeferenced multispectral imagery of calibrated radiance in 50 bands covering wavelengths of 0.460 to 12.879 micrometers at approximately 50-meter spatial resolution. Derived L2 data products are emissivity in 5 bands in thermal infrared range (8.58 to 12.13 micrometers) and land surface temperature. The L1B file format is HDF-4, and L2 products are provided in ENVI and KMZ formats. In addition, the dataset includes flight paths, spectral band information, instrument configuration, ancillary notes, and summary information for each flight, and browse images derived from each L1B data file.
