MODIS/Terra Net Primary Production Gap-Filled Yearly L4 Global 500m SIN Grid V061

The MYD17A3HGF Version 6.1 product provides information about annual Gross and Net Primary Production (GPP and NPP) at 500 meter (m) pixel resolution. Annual Aqua Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) GPP and NPP is derived from the sum of all 8-day GPP and Net Photosynthesis (PSN) products (MYD17A2H) from the given year. The PSN value is the difference of the GPP and the Maintenance Respiration (MR). The MYD17A3HGF will be generated at the end of each year when the entire yearly 8-day MYD15A2H is available. Hence, the gap-filled MYD17A3HGF is the improved MYD17, which has cleaned the poor-quality inputs from 8-day Leaf Area Index and Fraction of Photosynthetically Active Radiation (FPAR/LAI) based on the Quality Control (QC) label for every pixel. If any LAI/FPAR pixel did not meet the quality screening criteria, its value is determined through linear interpolation. However, users cannot get MYD17A3HGF in near-real time because it will be generated only at the end of a given year. Known Issues * Operational and uncertainty issues are provided under Section 2 in the User Guide. * For complete information about known issues please refer to the MODIS/VIIRS Land Quality Assessment website.

The MOD17A2HGF Version 6.1 Gross Primary Productivity (GPP) product is a cumulative 8-day composite of values with 500 meter (m) pixel size based on the radiation use efficiency concept that can be potentially used as inputs to data models to calculate terrestrial energy, carbon, water cycle processes, and biogeochemistry of vegetation. The Terra Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) data product includes information about GPP and Net Photosynthesis (PSN). The PSN band values are the GPP less the Maintenance Respiration (MR). The data product also contains a PSN Quality Control (QC) layer. The quality layer contains quality information for both the GPP and the PSN. The MOD17A2HGF will be generated at the end of each year when the entire yearly 8-day MOD15A2H is available. Hence, the gap-filled MOD17A2HGF is the improved MOD17, which has cleaned the poor-quality inputs from 8-day Leaf Area Index and Fraction of Photosynthetically Active Radiation (FPAR/LAI) based on the Quality Control (QC) label for every pixel.

The delivery of all Suomi National Polar-orbiting Partnership (Suomi NPP) VIIRS science data products will cease on November 2, 2026 (2026/306). Data users are encouraged to transition to the equivalent VJ217A3GF (primary) or VJ117A3GF (secondary) data products. The NASA/NOAA Suomi National Polar-orbiting Partnership (Suomi NPP) Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) Gross and Net Primary Production (NPP) Gap-Filled (VNP17A3GF) Version 2 product is a cumulative composite of Gross Primary Productivity (GPP) values based on the radiation use efficiency concept that is potentially used as inputs to data models to calculate terrestrial energy, carbon, water cycle processes, and biogeochemistry of vegetation. VNP17A3GF is a yearly composite at 500 meter (m) spatial resolution delivered as a gridded Level 4 (L4) product in Sinusoidal projection. The VNP17A3GF will be generated at the end of each year when the entire yearly 8-day VNP15A2H is available. Hence, the gap-filled VNP17A3GF is the improved VNP17A2, which has cleaned the poor-quality inputs from 8-day Leaf Area Index and Fraction of Photosynthetically Active Radiation (LAI/FPAR) based on the Quality Control (QC) label for every pixel. If any LAI/FPAR pixel did not meet the quality screening criteria, its value is determined through linear interpolation. However, users cannot get VNP17A3GF in near-real time because it will be generated only at the end of a given year. Provided in the VNP17A3GF product are three variables for GPP, NPP, along with a quality control variable. A low resolution browse image for GPP is also available for each VNP17A3GF granule.

The NOAA-21 Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) Gross and Net Primary Production (NPP) Gap-Filled (VJ217A3GF) Version 2 data product is a cumulative composite of Gross Primary Productivity (GPP) values based on the radiation-use efficiency concept that is potentially used as inputs to data models to calculate terrestrial energy, carbon, water cycle processes, and biogeochemistry of vegetation. VJ217A3GF is a yearly composite at 500 meter spatial resolution delivered as a gridded Level 4 (L4) product in Sinusoidal projection. The VJ217A3GF will be generated at the end of each year when the entire yearly 8-day VJ215A2H is available.
