Published by NASA/GSFC/SED/ESD/HBSL/BISB/LAADS;NASA/GSFC/SED/ESD/TISL/MODAPS;UWI-MAD/SSEC | National Aeronautics and Space Administration | Catalog Last Checked: June 23, 2026 at 09:46 PM | Dataset Last Updated: June 22, 2026
The Cloud Properties Level-3 gridded product is designed to facilitate continuity in cloud property statistics between the MODIS on the Aqua and Terra platforms and the common continuity products generated for the VIIRS (Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite) and the MODIS Aqua instruments. CLDPROP Level-3 statistical routines include scalar and histograms (1-D and 2-D) that are calculated identically to statistical datasets in the MODIS standard Level-3 product (MOD08 and MYD08 for MODIS Terra and Aqua, respectively). In addition, the same dataset names are used for all common datasets provided in both the continuity and standard Level-3 files.
