IV. WHERE THE DATA WERE COLLECTED

    The original biweekly composited images covered the
Conterminous United States.  However, the images were clipped
to the approximate New Mexico State boundaries (plus 50 Km buffer
around boundary) for online access purposes, while the full U.S.
scenes are stored offline on tape.  The clipping coordinates were
selected to perform exact clipping, so no resampling was required.
The approximate online (NM clipped) boundaries are:

      Latitude/Longitude, decimal degrees (Clarke 1866 spheroid)
XMIN: -109.515170   YMIN 30.759247   XMAX -102.454601   YMAX 37.817184

      Lambert Azimuthal Equal-area (see EDC document for projection info)
XMIN: -914000       YMIN -1529000    XMAX -216000       YMAX -795000

The source and the clipped images are in the following map projection:
      Lambert Azimuthal Equal Area projection
      Parameters:
        Radius of sphere                6,370,997.0 meters
        Longitude of central meridian   100 00 00 West
        Latitude of origin               45 00 00 North
        False easting                     0
        False northing                    0
        Units of measure                  meters
        Pixel size                     1,000 meters

Each clipped image has 735 rows and 699 columns, and has a cell size
of 1000 x 1000 m.

##############################################################
VI. HOW THE DATA WERE PROCESSED BY THE SEVILLETA IMS (SIMS)

   The general SIMS processing steps for each biweekly composite
period were to read the 10 image bands off the source USGS-EDC CD,
concatenate/import them into a 10-band ERDAS Imagine format image
file, georegister to the USGS-EDC specifications, clip the scene
to the approximate New Mexico State boundaries, move the clipped
scene to the online SIMS archive, and write the full scene to
offline tape.

   The band order in the archived scenes is:

          1- NOAA CHANNEL 1         6- NDVI
          2- NOAA CHANNEL 2         7- SATELLITE ZENITH
          3- NOAA CHANNEL 3         8- SOLAR ZENITH
          4- NOAA CHANNEL 4         9- RELATIVE AZIMUTH
          5- NOAA CHANNEL 5        10- DATE

The bands are described in detail in the U.S. Geological Survey's
EROS Data Center (EDC) documentation in APPENDIX I below.  The
attribute data for the "DATE" band is found in APPENDIX II below.

A more precise description of the processing steps is as follows:

1. Mount AVHRR CD

2. Read the 10 bands of information off the CD for each biweekly composited
   scene, concatenate 21 NULL bytes onto the last line of each band, concatenate
   the 10 bands into a single file, then import as an ERDAS Imagine 10-band
   image file (of size  2889 rows x 4587 cols).  This process was automated
   with the C-shell script:

      /db/local/imagery/bincom/avhrr_import.csh 91

        NOTE: this generates 10-band ERDAS Imagine format files, that are of
              image size 2889 rows x 4587 cols, with filenames as follows:

            avhrr91pPP.img

                  where: PP = bi-weekly growth period number

              and bands in following order::
                1- NOAA CHANNEL 1         6- NDVI
                2- NOAA CHANNEL 2         7- SATELLITE ZENITH 
                3- NOAA CHANNEL 3         8- SOLAR ZENITH 
                4- NOAA CHANNEL 4         9- RELATIVE AZIMUTH
                5- NOAA CHANNEL 5        10- DATE

3. Georegister the scene as follows:
   Bring up ERDAS Imagine GUI, then Tools->ImageInfo tool and do:
   1. File->Open->avhrr91pPP.img
   2. Edit->Change Map Model:
      a. Upper Left X: -2050000
      b. Upper Left Y: 752000
      c. Pixel Size X: 1000
      d. Pixel Size Y: 1000
      e. Units: meters
      f. Projection: Lambert Azimuthal Equal-area
      NOTE: click OK, then answer "Yes" to changing Map Model in all layers.
   3. Edit->Add/Change Projection:
      a. Spheroid Name: Sphere of Radius 6370997m
      b. Datum Name: Undefined
      c. Longitude of center of projection: 100:00:00 W
      d. Latitude of center of projection: 45:00:00 N
      e. False easting: 0.0 meters
      f. False northing: 0.0 meters
      NOTE: click OK, then answer "Yes" to changing Map Model in all layers.
   4. Edit->Change Layer Name:
      a. Change bands 1 - 5 to Channel_1, Channel_2, ..., Channel_5,respectively
      b. Change band 6 to NDVI
      c. Change bands 7 - 10 to SATELLITE_ZENITH, SOLAR ZENITH,
         RELATIVE_AZIMUTH, and DATE, respectively

4. Clip full-scene to New Mexico minimum bounding box (+50 Km buffer) with
   coordinates ULx = -914000, ULy = -795000, LRx = -216000, LRy = -1529000,
   and dimensions 735 rows x 699 columns.  This process was automated with
   the C-shell scripts:

      /db/local/imagery/bincom/batch_avhrr_clip2nm.csh, which calls:
      /db/local/imagery/bincom/avhrr_clip2nm.csh avhrr91pPP.img avhrr91pPPnm.img

        NOTE: this generates 10-band ERDAS Imagine format files, that are of
              image size 735 rows x 699 cols, with filenames as follows:

            avhrr91pPPnm.img

5. Unix compress the NM clipped image, make an archive directory, and move it
   to the archive destination (/db/archive/imagery/avhrr/avhrr91pPP/). This
   process was automated with the C-shell scripts:

        /db/local/imagery/bincom/avhrr_archive.csh

        NOTE: this generates Unix compressed files with filenames as follows:

            avhrr91pPPnm.img.Z

6. Compress (gzip) and archive the full scene image to 4mm DAT tape, then
   remove from online disk:

      gzip avhrr91pPP.img
      mt -f /dev/rmt/0cn fsf <#>
      tar cvf /dev/rmt/0cn avhrr91pPP.img.gz
      rm avhrr91pPP.img.gz

7. Copy the most current yearly "USGS-EDC-AVHRR Dataset README" file off CD for
   inclusion in the online SIMS IAF metadata file (avhrr91.dbf) for the images
   (note, must also convert from DOS to Unix file):

      dos2unix /cdrom/cdrom0/readme.1st avhrr91readme.1st

8. Copy the "Date of Acquisition by Pixel" attribute file off each CD, then
   split by biweekly period for inclusion in GIS/RS Metadata Abstract file
   (avhrr91pPPnm.mda), and merge by year for inclusion in SIMS IAF metadata
   file (avhrr91.dbf):

      dos2unix /cdrom/cdrom0/geom/date.att avhrr91pPP-PPdate.att

        /db/local/imagery/bincom/batch_avhrr_split_dateatt.csh, which calls:
        /db/local/imagery/bincom/avhrr_split_dateatt.csh

        /db/local/imagery/bincom/avhrr_concat_dates.csh 91 > avhrr91date.att

9. Generate (this) SIMS IAF metadata file (i.e., avhrr91.dbf) using template
   file (avhrr_dbf.tmpl), appending readme file (avhrr91readme.1st), and date
   file (avhrr91date.att).

10. Generate GIS/RS Metadata Abstract file for each image, and put with
    image in appropriate directory (/db/archive/imagery/avhrr/avhrr91pPP/):

       /db/local/imagery/bincom/get_avhrr_dates.csh 91 avhrr91.dbf 97 \
                                        > avhrr91periods.txt

       /db/local/imagery/bincom/batch_make_avhrr_abstract.csh avhrr91periods.txt
       which calls:
       /db/local/imagery/bincom/make_avhrr_abstract.csh

            THE 1991 CONTERMINOUS U.S. AVHRR BIWEEKLY COMPOSITES
                             INTRODUCTION

    In 1987, the U.S. Geological Survey's EROS Data Center (EDC),
in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, began receiving Advanced Very High
Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) data from NOAA polar-orbiting
satellites.  The central location of the EDC in the United States
enables direct reception of all AVHRR overpasses of the lower 48
States, as well as much of Canada and Mexico.  Early in the 1990
growing season the EDC started acquiring NOAA-11 AVHRR 1-km
resolution daily observations to produce weekly and biweekly
maximum normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) composites
of the conterminous United States.  The objective of the
vegetation mapping program is to compile, annually, a
comprehensive series of calibrated, georegistered, daily
observations and biweekly maximum NDVI composites.  These data
are being published on CD-ROM for easy distribution of the data
set.  These data sets can be used in environmental monitoring and
global climate change studies.

    The vegetation diversity of the conterminous United States
provides opportunities for using both AVHRR data and the NDVI for
monitoring vegetation condition in several different ecosystems,
including forests, agricultural crops, and grasslands.  The data
set provides a comprehensive growing season profile of these
ecosystems, is extremely useful for assessing seasonal variations
in vegetation condition, and provides a foundation for studying
long-term changes resulting from human or natural factors.


                        DATA SET CHARACTERISTICS

    The data set is composed of twenty-one 14-day maximum NDVI
composites that were created from nearly 500 NOAA-11 images.  The
17 core composite periods represent a continuous period from
March 1, 1991, to October 22, 1991.  The first two (periods 1 and
2) and last two (periods 20 and 21) composites represent a 2-week
period each for January, February, November, and December.

    Each daily observation includes nine bands of information:
AVHRR channels 1-5, NDVI, satellite zenith, solar zenith, and
relative azimuth.  The daily observations have been calibrated to
reflectance, scaled to byte data, and geometrically registered to
the Lambert Azimuthal Equal Area map projection.

    Each 14-day composite includes 10 bands of information, the 9
bands described above for each daily observation and a 10th band,
which is a pointer to identify the date of the source daily
observation scene.  The data for each pixel in the composite are
extracted from the daily observation scene on the basis of the
maximum NDVI compositing process.

The 14-day composite periods for 1991 were:

____________________________________________________
     The image dimensions of each band are 2,889 lines and 4,608
samples (13 megabytes). 

                  PROCEDURES

    The sections that follow describe the data processing flow
that was used at EDC to create a composite data set.  All image
processing was conducted using the Land Analysis System (Ailts
and others, 1990) software.


Scene Selection
   
    Cloud free AVHRR observations of the land surface are
necessary for monitoring the vegetation conditions.  A single
AVHRR overpass is seldom completely cloud free.  Holben (1986)
showed that compositing AVHRR data acquired over several days
produces spatially continuous cloud free imagery over large areas
with sufficient temporal resolution to study green vegetation
dynamics.  The duration of consecutive daily observations is
called the compositing period.  On a daily basis during a
composite period, each observation of NOAA-11 data over the
conterminous United States was evaluated for cloud cover.
Typically, there are two satellite overpasses per day, one over
the eastern portion of North America and a second pass over the
western part of the continent.  Every image that provided a clear
observation of a large ground surface area at reasonable nadir
viewing angles was included in the composite.  On an average, 18
daily observations per biweekly period were included in the
composite.


Radiometric Calibration

     Radiometric calibration of the AVHRR visible and near-infrared
channels (channels 1 and 2) is an important consideration since
there is poor preflight calibration, no on board calibration, and
difficulty with inflight calibration.  Preflight calibration
coefficients can change while the instrument is in storage or after
launch due to the space environment.  Degradation of AVHRR sensors
after launch has been well documented (Rao, 1987; Price, 1987;
Holben et al, 1990).  Several studies have used stable sites such
as homogeneous desert targets to monitor the degradation of the
sensors after the satellite has been launched.  The EDC accounted
for sensor degradation by using modified preflight gain
coefficients developed from a study by Holben et al (1990) that was
based on measurements of desert targets.  The adjusted gain
coefficient for channel 1 is 0.09325 and 0.08475 for channel 2.

     Besides radiometric calibration, the solar illumination
variability which occurs in the north/south direction within an
orbit was corrected using the cosine of the solar zenith angle.
The calibration and solar illumination correction of channels 1 and
2 was completed using the following formula:

          R=(d*d/z)*(a+b*c)
 
           =(d*d*a)/z + (d*d*b*c)/z
 
where:
          R is reflectance

          d is the mean earth-sun distance in astronautical units

          z is the cosine of the solar zenith angle

          a is the intercept

          b is the gain coefficient

          c is the digital count

     Reflectance values for channels 1 and 2 were converted to byte
data where the range 0 - 254 represents 0 to 63.5% reflectance
(0.25% per bin) and the value 255 is a grouping of reflectance
values greater than 63.5%.  Any feature with greater than 63%
reflectance is a cloud, snow, or other bright non-vegetated
surface.

     The calibration coefficents for AVHRR thermal channels 3,4,
and 5 are derived onboard the satellite using a view of a stable
blackbody and  deep space as a reference (Kidwell, 1988).  The
calibration process converts raw data values to energy
(milliwatts/m2-steradians-cm-1) using the following formula:

           E=a+bc

where:

          E is energy

          a is the intercept

          b is the gain coefficient

          c is the digital count

     Energy is converted to brightness temperature using the
inverse of Planck's radiation function.  The brightness
temperatures are represented in Kelvin units.  A scaling factor was
used to convert the brightness temperatures to byte data.  A
scaling factor of 202.5 is subtracted from the brightness
temperature value and the difference is multiplied by 2 to maintain
one half percent accuracy (i.e., a brightness temperature of 280
becomes 155). 


Satellite and Solar Viewing Geometry

     The availability of the viewing geometry information allows
studies on the effects of off-nadir viewing and the investigation
of potential data correction techniques. 

     The computation of the solar/satellite geometry is a process
that derives the satellite zenith, solar zenith, and relative
azimuth angle for each image pixel.  The relative azimuth is the
absolute difference between the satellite and solar azimuth
angles.  The computed angles do not exceed 180 degrees.   A
separate image band is created for each of these three angle
computations. 

    The satellite zenith angle is computed in degrees, in which
nadir is represented as 90 degrees.  Therefore, values less than
90 degrees represent view angles in the backscattered (easterly)
direction and values greater than 90 represent the forward
scatter (westerly) direction.  Note that the effective field of
view of the satellite is approximately 55 degrees each side of
nadir, but computed satellite zenith angles can exceed 55 degrees
because of the curvature of the Earth.

     The relative azimuth angle is computed as the absolute
difference between the solar azimuth and the satellite azimuth
angles.  The computed values are in the 0 - 180 range.  The
relative azimuth angle is computed instead of separate azimuth
angles because only the absolute difference between the azimuth
angles is required for atmospheric correction algorithms. Also,
saving only the computed relative azimuth angle requires only one
band in a daily observation and composite image instead of two,
which reduces the image storage requirements on CD-ROM.


Date of Acquisition

    The date of acquisition images are provided to allow a user
to identify the specific daily observation used for each pixel.
The date images for each composite identify each daily input
image as a unique value.  The unique value is linked to an
inventory of the daily observations.  A complete list of daily
observations used in each composite period is on this CD-ROM
under the \GEOM directory in file DATE.ATT.


Geometric Registration

    The process of compositing daily observations for each
biweekly period required each daily overpass to be registered to
a common map projection to ensure that, from day to day, each 1-
km pixel represented the same ground location.  The map
projection chosen for the data on these CD-ROM's was the Lambert
Azimuthal Equal Area.  This projection is appropriate for the
North American continent because of its visual presentation, and
equal area characteristic, which allows easy measurement of area
throughout the data set.

    To perform the image-to-image registration of the data a base
image was developed as a reference.  Tests have shown that the
best way to prepare the base image is to register individual
daily orbits to an accurate base map.  The map base used was the
hydrography layer of the United State Geological Survey
1:2,000,00-scale Digital Line Graph (DLG).  The features in the
DLG data, such as water bodies, rivers, and streams, are
identifiable features in the AVHRR 1-km data.  The DLG were
rasterized to 1 km cells and registered to the Lambert Azimuthal
Equal Area map projection before being used as the map base for
the data.

    Approximately 20 near-nadir cloud free segments of NOAA-11
channel 2 daily observations from the 1989 growing season were
manually registered to the DLG data.  Each segment was verified
for accuracy (root-mean-square error less than 1.0 pixel).  The
segments were digitally mosaicked to produce a single base image
of the conterminous United States for registering the 1991
growing season data.  The accuracy of this base image was
verified with a root-mean-square error less than 1.0 pixel.
Table 1 provides details on projection parameters.

    Each daily observation for the 1991 growing season was
registered to the base image using image-to-image correlation.
First, the channel 2 data for each daily observation were roughly
transformed using the satellite transformation information in the
ephemeris data.  Next, correlation was performed using a set of
255 selected ground control points.  If all the ground control
points were cloud covered in the daily observation, no
correlation was defined and the image was rejected.  Otherwise,
the correlation was determined and the satellite transformation
coefficients were revised.  Then the raw data (channels 1 - 5)
and satellite geometry data were transformed using the revised
coefficients and nearest neighbor resampling. 


Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI)

    NDVI was calculated from calibrated data that were scaled to
byte range and geometrically registered.  The NDVI is the
difference of near-infrared (AVHRR channel 2) and visible (AVHRR
channel 1) reflectance values divided by total reflectance:

               IR(channel 2)  -  Visible(channel 1)
       NDVI =  ----------------------------------------
               IR(channel 2)  +  Visible(channel 1)

The equation produces NDVI values in the range of -1.0 to 1.0,
where negative values typically represent clouds, snow, water,
and other non vegetated surfaces and positive values represent
vegetated surfaces.

    In order to scale the computed NDVI results to byte data
range, the NDVI computed value, which range from -1.0 to 1.0, was
scaled to the range of 0 to 200, where computed -1.0 equals 0,
computed 0 equals 100, and computed 1.0 equals 200.  As a result,
NDVI values less than 100 now represent clouds, snow, water, and
other non vegetative surfaces and values greater than 100
represent vegetative surfaces.


Compositing

    The method for determining the portion of each overpass to be
included in the composite image was to retain pixels having the
highest NDVI values.  The NDVI was examined pixel by pixel for
each overpass within the biweekly compositing period to determine
the maximum value.

    The retention of the highest NDVI reduces the number of cloud
contaminated pixels because values for clouds and cloud shadows
are generally less than 100 (in the byte scaled data) and clear
day observations of vegetated surfaces are greater than 100 (in
the byte-scaled data).  The result is a near cloud free image
that depicts the maximum vegetative greenness for the compositing
period.

    The output of the compositing process was a 10-band image
that included the maximum NDVI value for each pixel during the
composite period, the channel 1-5 and satellite viewing geometry
data from the chosen daily observations, and a pointer value that
identified the satellite overpass from which that pixel was
taken.  Table 2 lists the data included in each of the 10 bands.

    The date of acquisition pointer is provided to allow a user
to identify the specific AVHRR daily observation (satellite scene
number) used for each pixel.  To determine the date and scene
number, first identify the date pointer value for the pixel
within a composite period, then use the reference table in file
DATE.ATT to determine the scene number.
 

Miscellenous Data
 
    When displaying data large areas with AVHRR data, an overlay
or mask of familiar linework, such as county boundaries, can be
used as a location aid.  Several images are included in the \MISC
directory to provide location information.  All of the linework
images represent lines in raster format as 1 km cells.  These
data sets include climatic division boundaries (CDLINES), major
land resource areas boundaries (LRALINES), and county boundaries
(CTYLINES).  The climatic division lines were digitized from NOAA
base maps.  The county lines are a modified version of the
1:2,000,000 Digital Line Graph data.  The major land resource
area boundaries were digitized from United State Department of
Agriculture's Soil Conservation Service (1981) maps.

    The linework in the CDLINES and LRALINES images was coded at
the byte value 255.  In the CTYLINES image, the county boundaries
identified by the coasts and international borders are at value
253, the county borders that are coincident with State borders
are at value 254, and other county boundaries are at value 255.
This variable coding provides the capability to display coastal,
State, or county boundaries from the same image.

    Also included are three raster polygon images that can be
used in an overlay process where histograms or descriptive
statistics could be computed for the NDVI values within a
polygon.  These images include  counties (CTYPOLY), major land
resource areas (LRAPOLY), and climatic divisions (CDPOLY).

    Each polygon is in raster format and has a unique numeric
identifier.  Images that include more than 256 unique polygons
are stored in I*2 integer (16 bit) format. 

    The attribute information that identifies or characterizes
each polygon are included under the \MISC directory.  The
attributes for the county polygons are in CTYPOLY.ATT.  The
fields in the file are:

     cntyid -- the unique polygon identification number
    npixels -- the number of pixels in each county
       FIPS -- the Federal Information Processing Standard State 
               and county code for each county
      cname -- the county name
      sname -- the State name
The attributes for the major land resource area polygons are in
LRAPOLY.ATT. The fields in the file are:

     polyid -- the unique polygon identification number
       mlra -- the major land resource area (MLRA) identification
               code used by the Soils Conservation Service
    lratext -- text description of the MLRA used by the Soil     
               Conservation Service

The unique polygon identification number for the climatic
division polygons can be parsed into the State and climatic
division number within that State.  For example, climatic
district one in Arizona is polygon number 401. The 4 is the FIPS
State identification number for Arizona, and the 01 identifies
the polygon as division one.  Climatic district one in Oklahoma
is polygon number 4001, where 40 is the FIPS State code and 01 is
division one.

CD-ROM ORGANIZATION

    A large volume of data was generated during the construction
of this data base.  The data stored on each CD-ROM required ten
6,250-bpi magnetic tapes.  The data are organized in a directory
structure that logically separates the data components.  This
structure is:

     README.1ST
     \AVHRR
          README    \LABELS   \IMAGES
     \NDVI
          README    \LABELS   \IMAGES
     \GEOM
          README    \LABELS   \IMAGES
     \MISC
          README    \LABELS   \IMAGES

Each directory on the disc contains data that are similar in
type.  Each directory also contains an ASCII text file (README)
that details the contents of the directory. 

    The data files and LAS header files (files with name
extensions .DDR) are in the \IMAGES subdirectories, and the image
label files are in the \LABELS subdirectories.  The binary image
files were put  on the CD-ROM with a 512-byte header record.
This header record is used by the LAS image processing system. 

    To get a quick start looking at the image files, label files
for each image are included in the \LABELS directory using the
same file name as the image file it describes in the \IMAGES
subdirectory.  These label files were designed for use by the
public domain MS-DOS personal computer IMDISP image display
software developed by NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in
Pasadena, CA.  IMDISP users can access the images
on this CD-ROM by selecting the image name in the \LABELS
subdirectory, which automatically will access all header
information the software requires and quickly will retrieve the
image data.

    The actual data dimensions of each band are 2,889 lines and
4,587 samples (13 megabytes), but the images are stored as 2,889
lines and 4,608 samples to accommodate LAS software.  The last 21
samples of each image are blank (zero) to make each line a
multiple of 512 as required by LAS. 

    The \AVHRR directory contains the five channels of AVHRR data
associated with the four biweekly composites on each CD-ROM. 
Each band of each biweekly composite file is uniquely named using
the convention:

            P01CH1.IMG

where P01 identifies composite period 1 and CH1 identifies the
image as channel 1.  The image files are stored in the \IMAGES
subdirectory.

    The \NDVI directory contains the single band computed NDVI
for the biweekly AVHRR composite data sets and name using the
convention:

            P01NDVI.IMG

where P01 identifies composite period 1 and NDVI identifies the
image as a vegetation index image.  The image files are stored in
the \IMAGES subdirectory.

    The \GEOM directory contains the satellite and solar zenith
and relative azimuth information for each pixel in the AVHRR
composite images.  This directory also contains the date images
for each of the composites, as well as the DATE.ATT attribute
file.

    The \MISC directory contains the political (CTYLINES,
CTYPOLY), climatic divisions (CDLINES, CDPOLY), and land resource
area (LRALINES, LRAPOLY) raster line and polygon images which are
useful for display or in digital analysis procedures.  Attribute
files related to these are included as files CTYPOLY.ATT and
LRAPOLY.ATT.
