AVHRR - NDVI (Latifovic, R., Trishchenko, A., Chen, J., Park, W., Khlopenkov, K., Fernandes, R., Pouliot, D., Ungureanu, C., Luo, Y., Wang, S., Davidson, A., and Cihlar, J. 2005. Generating historical AVHRR 1-km baseline satellite data records over Canada suitable for climate change studies. Canadian Journal of Remote Sensing, vol. 31:324-34.) - 3

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) AVHRR series satellites were used to generate 1 km, NDVI composites based on surface reflectance data, annually producing 36 composites every 10-days for all of Canada from 1985 to 2013 (Latifovic et al., 2005). Resulting cloud free NDVI composites were used to derive NDVI metrics both annually and for the growing season (defined as May 1st through August 31st) for all 6-digit DMTI Spatial single link postal code locations in Canada.
