The ARIA-share website has always focused on posting preliminary results as fast as possible for disaster response.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN STYLE="font-style:italic;">OPERA DIST-ALERT-HLS</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>The Disturbance product (DIST) maps per pixel vegetation disturbance (specifically, vegetation cover loss) from the Harmonized Landsat Sentinel-2 (HLS) scenes. We provide the vegetation disturbance status (VEG-DIST-STATUS) and the maximum vegetation anomaly value (VEG-ANOM-MAX) layers. Images are provided from October 2, 2024. Each image consists of multiple MGRS tiles that were merged together for a composite image saved as a GeoTIFF file.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN STYLE="font-style:italic;">VEG-ANOM-MAX</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>Difference between historical and current year observed vegetation cover at the date of maximum decrease (vegetation loss of 0-100%). This layer can be used to threshold vegetation disturbance per a given sensitivity (e.g. disturbance of &gt;20% vegetation cover loss). The sum of the historical percent vegetation and the anomaly value will be the vegetation cover estimate for the current year.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN STYLE="font-style:italic;">GEN-ANOM-MAX</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>Maximum spectral distance between a current year HLS scene reflectance and the composite reflectance of previous calendar years. Generic disturbance, as determined from the variations of the reflectance through the HLS scenes, is intended to delineate generic changes outside of the vegetation cover loss theme. </SPAN></P><P><SPAN>The DIST-ALERT HLS products have these flags:</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>For VEG-ANOM-MAX layers, 255 represents No Data and is based on the Fmask layer of the source HLS granule. For the GEN-ANOM-MAX layer, -1 represents "No Data" and is based on the Fmask layer of the source HLS granule.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN STYLE="font-weight:bold;">Suggested Use:</SPAN></P><P><SPAN STYLE="font-style:italic;">VEG-ANOM-MAX</SPAN></P><UL><LI><P><SPAN>0 (White) - 100 (Red): Maximum loss of percent vegetation</SPAN></P></LI><LI><P><SPAN>255: No data</SPAN></P></LI></UL><P><SPAN STYLE="font-style:italic;">GEN-ANOM-MAX</SPAN></P><UL><LI><P><SPAN>0 (White) - Variable (Blue): Maximum spectral distance compared to composite reflectance of previous calendar years </SPAN></P></LI><LI><P><SPAN>-1: No Data </SPAN></P></LI></UL><P><SPAN STYLE="font-weight:bold;">Satellite/Sensor:</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>MultiSpectral Instrument (MSI) on European Space Agency's (ESA) Copernicus Sentinel-2A/B satellites and Operational Land Imager 2 (OLI-2) on NASA's Landsat 9 satellite.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN STYLE="font-weight:bold;">Resolution:</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>30 meters</SPAN></P><P><SPAN STYLE="font-weight:bold;">Credits:</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>NASA JPL-Caltech ARIA/OPERA Team</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>The product contains modified Copernicus Sentinel data (2024) and is produced as part of the OPERA project, which is funded by NASA to address remote sensing needs identified by the Satellite Needs Working Group.
