MISR Level 1B2 Local Mode Ellipsoid Radiance Data subset for the UAE region V002

Multi-angle Imaging SpectroRadiometer (MISR) is an instrument designed to view Earth with cameras pointed in 9 different directions. As the instrument flies overhead, each piece of Earth's surface below is successively imaged by all 9 cameras, in each of 4 wavelengths (blue, green, red, and near-infrared). The goal of MISR is to improve our understanding of the fate of sunlight in Earth environment, as well as distinguish different types of clouds, particles and surfaces. Specifically, MISR monitors the monthly, seasonal, and long-term trends in three areas: 1) amount and type of atmospheric particles (aerosols), including those formed by natural sources and by human activities; 2) amounts, types, and heights of clouds, and 3) distribution of land surface cover, including vegetation canopy structure. MISR Level 1B2 Local Mode Ellipsoid Radiance Data subset for the UAE region V002 contains the ellipsoid projected TOA parameters for the single local mode scene, resampled to WGS84 ellipsoid.

Purpose
The MISR Instrument can also acquire data in what is referred to as Local Mode, which provides high resolution (unaveraged) images in all 4 bands of all 9 cameras for selected Earth targets. Data obtained from Local Mode sites will be used for new algorithm development, specialized research, calibration, field validation, instrument inter-comparisons, or other purposes at the MISR Science Computing Facility (SCF). This parameter provides Local Mode data which has not been corrected for topography but has been projected to Space Oblique Mercator (SOM).
