CLMS NDVI Global 300m 10-daily V2
biosphere ESA ESA Copernicus COGNetCDF
In plain English

What it measures. Provides ten-day maps of vegetation greenness worldwide at finer 300-meter detail, spanning July 2020 to the end of December 2025.

How it's made. Produced by ESA Copernicus from the Sentinel-3 OLCI instrument at about 300-meter resolution.

How & where you'd use it. Supports detailed monitoring of crops, pastures, and natural vegetation health, and tracking drought and seasonal change at field scale.
