About this technology

Overview

This software was designed to produce instantaneous eveapotranspiration with the MOD16 model and partition latent heat flux into canopy transpiration, interception, and soil evaporation. The MOD16 algorithm has been re-implemented to run on instantaneous high spatial resolution remote sensing imagery instead of 8-day MODIS imagery, making the model more accessible for remote sensing researchers.
