MODIS/Aqua Snow Cover Daily L3 Global 500m SIN Grid V061
This global Level-3 (L3) data set provides a daily composite of snow cover and albedo derived from the 'MODIS/Aqua Snow Cover 5-Min L2 Swath 500m' data set (DOI:10.5067/MODIS/MYD10_L2.061). Each data granule is a 10°x10° tile projected to a 500 m sinusoidal grid.

- Type: ECHO ORDERSDescription: NSIDC_ECS EOSDIS ECHO ORDERS Service Implementation
- Type: EGI - No ProcessingDescription: Using this service, data from the NASA National Snow and Ice Data Center Distributed Active Archive Center (NSIDC DAAC) can be accessed directly from our HTTPS file system, or through our Application Programming Interface (API). This API offers you the ability to programmatically order and bulk-download data using temporal and spatial filters without the need to script against NSIDC's data directory structure. This may be valuable if you are interested in incorporating data access commands into your analysis or visualization code.
