About this technology
Overview
The VNP43 BRDF (Bidirectional Reflectance Distribution Function) algorithm is a part of the Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) onboard on the Suomi-National Polar-orbiting Partnership (NPP) satellite. This algorithm is used to continue the long-term remote sensing environmental data records (EDR) begun by the MODerate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) sensors.
