Satellite sensor info for DNVI data

Sensor Date Range Resolution Return Frequency Notes
Landsat 1972-Present 30m 16 days Because only twice monthly visit, there are many gaps in data due to cloud cover. Would likely only work for yearly NDVI stats
MODIS 2000-Present 250-500m 1 day Likely the best combo of frequency/resolution. But only goes back to 2000
AVHRR 1989-Present 1km 1 week Best source for monthly data prior to MODIS
