  description: The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) MOD16A3GF
    Version 6.1 Evapotranspiration/Latent Heat Flux (ET/LE) product is a year-end
    gap-filled yearly composite dataset produced at 500 meter (m) pixel resolution.
    The algorithm used for the MOD16 data product collection is based on the logic
    of the Penman-Monteith equation, which includes inputs of daily meteorological
    reanalysis data along with MODIS remotely sensed data products such as vegetation
    property dynamics, albedo, and land cover. The product will be generated at the
    end of each year when the entire yearly 8-day MOD15A2H/MYD15A2H is available.
    Hence, the gap-filled product is the improved 16, which has cleaned the poor-quality
    inputs from yearly Leaf Area Index and Fraction of Photosynthetically Active Radiation
    (LAI/FPAR) based on the Quality Control (QC) label for every pixel. If any LAI/FPAR
    pixel did not meet the quality screening criteria, its value is determined through
    linear interpolation. However, users cannot get this product in near-real time
    because it will be generated only at the end of a given year. Provided in the
    product are layers for composited ET, LE, Potential ET (PET), and Potential LE
    (PLE) along with a quality control layer. Two low resolution browse images, ET
    and LE, are also available for each granule. The pixel values for the two Evapotranspiration
    layers (ET and PET) are the sum for all days within the defined year, and the
    pixel values for the two Latent Heat layers (LE and PLE) are the average of all
    days within the defined year.
