NOAA GOES-R Series Advanced Baseline Imager (ABI) Level 2 Land Surface Bidirectional Reflectance Factor (BRF)

Description

The GOES-R Advanced Baseline Imager (ABI) Level 2 Bidirectional Reflectance Factor (BRF) products provide spectral land surface reflectance, i.e., a ratio between outgoing radiance at one given direction and incoming radiance at another given direction (same or different from the incoming direction). In this product, the outgoing direction is the direction of the satellite view, while the incoming direction is the direction of solar illumination. The BRF is produced at the following wavelengths: 0.47 µm, 0.64 µm, 0.86 µm, 1.61 µm, and 2.26 µm, corresponding to bands 1, 2, 3, 5, 6. The product includes associated data quality flags and percentage of each flag value, mean, maximum, minimum, and standard deviation of BRF of each band. The ABI BRF provides spatial and temporal continuous surface reflectance information. The product image is provided at 2 km resolution on the ABI fixed grid for Full Disk, CONUS, and Mesoscale coverage regions from GOES East and West.
