Data Set ID:
NSIDC-0774
Data Set Summary:
This data set contains twice-daily synthetic aperture radar (SAR) and enhanced-resolution scatterometer radar backscatter derived from SMAP radar data. Data are available on the Northern Hemisphere, Southern Hemisphere, Temperate, and Mid-Latitude (sub-set of Global) EASE-Grid 2.0 projections and as either 25 km or 3.125 km resolution grids. This new product uses the drop-in-the bucket gridding (GRD) algorithm and Scatterometer Image Reconstruction (SIR) algorithm to process the individual swath-based data from the input data sets into twice-daily images, producing SAR images (high-resolution), slice and footprint images (both lower-resolution), respectively. Note, that as a companion product, the radiometer form of the SIR algorithm (rSIR) was used to derive brightness temperatures from SMAP radiometer data for the SMAP Radiometer Twice-Daily rSIR-Enhanced EASE-Grid 2.0 Brightness Temperatures, Version 2, data set (NSIDC-0738).
