The Aqua Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) Land Surface Temperature/Emissivity 8-Day (MYD11A2) Version 6.1 product provides an average 8-day per-pixel Land Surface Temperature and Emissivity (LST&E) with a 1 kilometer (km) spatial resolution in a 1,200 by 1,200 km grid. Each pixel value in the MYD11A2 is a simple average of all the corresponding MYD11A1 LST pixels collected within that 8-day period. The 8-day compositing period was chosen because twice that period is the exact ground track repeat period of the Terra and Aqua platforms. Provided along with the daytime and nighttime surface temperature bands are associated quality control assessments, observation times, view zenith angles, and clear-sky coverages along with bands 31 and 32 emissivities from land cover types.

This land cover classification refers to a study area in Bahia state, in the Cerrado biome. For this map, the Sentinel-2 monthly data cube was used, with a spatial resolution of 10 meters, using the best pixel composition function named as Least Cloud Cover First (LCF), which was previously named Stack in BDC older versions. This experiment uses the time series of an agricultural calendar year, from September 2018 to August 2019, extracted from the Sentinel-2 data cube. The classification was made using 922 samples (Pasture: 258; Agriculture: 242; Natural Vegetation: 422). The spectral band used were B01, B02, B03, B04, B05, B06, B07, B08, B8A, B11, and B12 along with the vegetation indices EVI and NDVI; the clouded observation were identified using the Fmask4 algorithm and estimated using linear interpolation. We trained a multi-layer perceptron for a deep learning classification network to classify the data cube using sits R package. Validation was done using good practice guidelines by Olofsson. The validation was done independently for each map using the PRODES Cerrado data of 2019. This data obtained overall accuracy (OA) 0.87.

This is a land cover classification map of Brazilian Cerrado, from August 2017 to August 2018. This classification was made on top of Landsat-8 monthly cubes with spatial resolution of 30 meters, using the best pixel composition function named as Least Cloud Cover First (LCF), which was previously named Stack in BDC older versions. The input datacube was Landsat-8 - OLI - Cube Stack 16 days - v001, which was deprecated. The classification model was trained using 67359 sample points spread across the whole Cerrado biome (Annual Crop: 9390, Dune Beach: 35, Forest: 5439, Pasture: 19697, Savanna: 30014, Semi-Perennial Crop: 1161, Silviculture: 1268, Water: 355). The spectral band used were B1, B2, B3, B4, B5, B6, and B7 along with the vegetation indices EVI and NDVI; the clouded observation were identified using the Fmask4 algorithm and estimated using linear interpolation. The classification algorithm was Multi-Layer Perceptron (Deep Learning). This product was funded by the Brazilian Development Bank (BNDES).

Earth Observation Data Cube generated from CBERS-4/WFI Level-4 SR product over Brazil extension. This dataset is provided in Cloud Optimized GeoTIFF (COG) file format. The dataset is processed with 64 meters of spatial resolution, reprojected and cropped to BDC_LG grid Version 2 (BDC_LG V2), considering a temporal compositing function of 16 days using the Least Cloud Cover First (LCF) best pixel approach.

Sentinel-2 image mosaic of Brazilian Cerrado biome with 10m of spatial resolution. The mosaic was prepared in support of TerraClass project. The false color composition is based on the MSI bands 8, 4 and 3 assigned to RGB channels. The temporal composition encompasses 04-months of images, starting in june 2022 and ending in September 2022, with a best pixel selection approach called Least Cloud Cover First (LCF). More information on LCF can be found at Brazil Data Cube web site (https://brazil-data-cube.github.io/specifications/processing-flow.html#temporal-compositing). This Image Mosaic used more than 14000 Sentinel-2 scenes and was generated based on an existing data cube of Sentinel-2 images.
