5 years of Albedo et NDVI from POLDER-3/PARASOL available

5 years of Albedo et NDVI from POLDER-3/PARASOL available

The directional, hemispheric, spectral and broadband surface albedo, and the NDVI, derived from bidirectionnal POLDER-3/PARASOL data acquired since April 2005 are available. They cover the whole globe at 6km spatial resolution. The production goes on in near real time : an updated product is generated every 10 days. These Albedos and DVI are currently produced by the HYGEOS company at the request of CNES. They can be downloaded on the POSTEL web site.
