MODIS/Terra satellite data provides daily land surface temperature and spectral emissivity retrievals in five-minute temporal increments. The swath covers approximately 2,030 pixels along track and 1,354 pixels per line at a 1,000-meter nadir resolution. This Level 2 product (V061) is produced by LPCLOUD using a physics-based algorithm distinct from heritage MODIS LST products.
Users must apply Quality Control filtering to mitigate known high-temperature outliers and dust contamination. The product retains values for contaminated pixels, unlike the MOD11 product which sets them to fill values. Future versions plan to include a dust flag from the MODIS aerosol product.
