Description

The underlying dataset for this daytime product is MODIS land surface temperature data (MOD11A2), which was gap-filled using the approach outlined in Weiss et al. (2014) to eliminate missing data caused by factors such as cloud cover. Gap-free outputs were then aggregated temporally and spatially to produce the monthly ≈5km product.

This dataset was produced by Harry Gibson and Daniel Weiss of the Malaria Atlas Project (Big Data Institute, University of Oxford, United Kingdom, https://malariaatlas.org/).

Bands

Bands

Name Units Min Max Description
Mean °C -74.03* 63.87*

The mean value of daytime land surface temperature for each aggregated pixel.
FilledProportion % 0* 100*

A quality control band that indicates the percentage of each resulting pixel that was comprised of raw data (as opposed to gap-filled estimates).
* estimated min or max value
