Key issue • Data continuity for AFF researchers and practical users
NPP/VIIRS 3 data levels • Raw Data Records (RDRs) / Level 0 • Sensor Data records (SDRs) / Level 1B • Environmental Data Records (EDRs) / Level 2
Level 1BSensor Data Records (SDRs) Calibrated and geolocated radiances and reflectances 22 bands - Moderate resolution bands • M1-M11: Reflective Solar Bands (RSB) • M12-M16: Thermal Emission Bands (TEB) - Imaging resolution bands • I1-I3: RSB • I4-I5: TEB - Day Night Band (DNB)
Level 2Environmental Data Records (EDRs) 24 Products • Aerosols Aerosol optical thickness, Aerosol particle size parameter, Suspended matter. • Imagery and Clouds Imagery, Cloud mask, Cloud optical thickness, Cloud effective particle size parameter, Cloud top parameters, Cloud base height, Cloud cover/layers. • Land Active Fires, Land surface temperature, Ice surface temperature, Snow ice characterization, Snow cover/depth, Vegetation index, Surface type. • Ocean Sea surface temperature, Ocean color.

Conclusion • MAFF needsNPP/VIIRS data of Japan and SE Asian region for research continuity especially for forest fire detection and fishing boats monitoring of night time lights data. • The fine VIIRS night time lights imagery is excellent! • In this time, we checked the file names, imageries and HDF data structures, which are not simple for non experts. • We are considering to use the CLASS system to obtain real time data.
