MODIS data, with a data format of. HDF, can be opened with hdfview. The data quality is good. The missing dates are as follows: 2000:1-54, 132, 219-230, 303, 2001:111, 167-182, 2002:079-086, 099, 105, 2003:123, 324, 351-358, 2004:219, 349. The number after middle age is the nth day of the yearPixel values are as follows:0: Snow-free land 1-100: Percent snow in cell111: Night252: Antarctica253: Data not mapped254: Open water (ocean)255: FillAn example of file naming is as follows:Example: "MOD10C1.A2003121.004.2003142152431.hdf"Where:MOD = MODIS/Terra2003 = Year of data acquisition121 = Julian date of data acquisition (day 121)004 = Version of data type (Version 4)2003 = Year of production (2003)142 = Julian date of production (day 142)152431 = Hour/minute/second of production in GMT (15:24:31)The corner coordinates are:Corner Coordinates:Upper Left ( 70.0000000, 54.0000000)Lower Left ( 70.0000000, 3.0000000)Upper Right ( 138.0000000, 54.0000000)Lower Right ( 138.0000000, 3.0000000)Where upper left is the upper left corner, lower left is the lower left corner, upper right is the upper right corner, and lower right is the lower right corner.
