Quality indicators for MODIS sea ice data can be found in the following three places:
* AutomaticQualityFlag and the ScienceQualityFlag metadata objects and their corresponding explanations: AutomaticQualityFlagExplanation and ScienceQualityFlagExplanation located in the CoreMetadata.0 global attributes
* Custom local attributes associated with each SDS, for example Ice Surface Temperature
* The Pixel QA SDS that accompanies each data field, for example, Ice Surface Temperature Spatial QA.
These quality indicators are generated during production or in post-production scientific and quality checks of the data product. For more information on local and global attributes, go to one of the following links:
* MOD29P1D and MYD29P1D Local Sea Ice Attributes, Version 5
* MOD29P1D and MYD29P1D Global Sea Ice Attributes, Version 5
The ScienceQualityFlag and the ScienceQualityFlagExplanation may be updated after production, either after an automated QA program is run or after the data product is inspected by a qualified scientist. Content and explanation of this flag are dynamic so it should always be examined if present in the external metadata file. A sampling of products will be inspected. Random sampling or support of specific events, such as field campaigns, may also be conducted.
The IST Spatial QA and Sea Ice by Reflectance Spatial QA data fields provide additional information on algorithm results for each pixel within a spatial context, and are used as a measure of usefulness for sea ice data. QA data are stored as coded integer values and tell if algorithm results were nominal, abnormal, or if other defined conditions were encountered for a pixel (Riggs, Hall, and Salomonson 2006).

However, revisions and improvements for Version 6 to algorithm inputs have improved sea ice outputs as follows:
<ul>
<li>Revised calibration of MYD02 thermal bands 31 and 32 decreased calculated brightness temperatures by about -0.01 K and improved accuracy for very cold scenes;</li>
<li>The Version 6 land/water mask in the MYD03 geolocation product increased the accuracy of water body and coastline maps;</li>
<li>Revisions to the MYD35_L2 cloud mask algorithm have increased the accuracy of cloud detection.</li>
