MODIS Terra+Aqua BRDF/Albedo 0.05Deg CMG QA Science Data Sets
The table below lists the four Science Data Sets representing Quality in the BRDF/Albedo CMG products, with applicable QC bit legends.
Note 1: Percent_Snow is not present in “MCD43C2 BRDF/Albedo Snow-free Quality”, as the value would be definition of the product always be 0.
Note 2: Local_Solar_Noon, Percent_Inputs, and Percent_Snow do not utilize their full 0 - 254 range (see below).
This information is excerpted from the file specifications for V005 MCD43Cs found at ftp://modular.nascom.nasa.gov/pub/LatestFilespecs/collection5/.
