VIIRS/JPSS1 Ice Surface Temperature 6-Min L2 Swath 750m V002

Published by NASA NSIDC DAAC | National Aeronautics and Space Administration | Catalog Last Checked: January 10, 2026 at 07:44 PM | Dataset Last Updated: March 31, 2025
This data set reports sea ice surface temperature (IST) derived from radiance data acquired by the Visible Infrared Imager Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) onboard the Joint Polar Satellite System's first satellite (JPSS-1). Following the approach used by MODIS, the algorithm converts VIIRS calibrated radiances into brightness temperature and computes IST using a split-window technique.
