Proposal for VIIRS global factional cover

[JohnLeys]

• [ ] Check the end members for the VIIRS BRDF data (vs MODIS MCD43A4.061)
• [ ] Who is the user community - ask Juan and Flora (works with Alex on GEOGLAMM)
• [ ] Operational cost and effort
• [ ] Proposal
• [ ] Seek investor

Meeting notes with Stephan 23 May 2023

• [ ] Step 1 small project to find out if VIIRS can be used, ie does it have the channels to calculate fractional cover
• [ ] Step 2 larger project to fund running the new VIIRS data to produce fractional cover
• [ ] to cross-correlate MODIS vs Landsat/S2, need one-off file for Stephan to analyse
• [ ] would degrading the L/S2 to MODIS pixel size be a good check?
• [ ] Flora keen to keep it going for the international front. Not sure which way to go at this stage
• [ ] Roger Lawes in WA is keen to keep GEOGLAMM going
