APPENDIX H: Composition of Second Generation Weekly Composite NDVI Tapes - Stacked

The tables below list the time periods and SSB tape numbers for the Second Generation Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) tapes which have been stacked to fill the available tape. All of these tapes are IBM 3480 cartridges and contain varying amounts of data depending on whether they are in Plate Carrée, Mercator or Polar Stereographic projection. Plate Carrée and Polar Stereographic stacked NDVI tapes can contain as much as 50 weeks of data, while Mercator stacked NDVI tapes hold approximately 35 weeks of data. Note: these stacked tapes only contain the documentation and NDVI files for the indicated date ranges.
