The row image (avg_vis) contains the average of the visible band digital number values with no further filtering. Data values range from 0-63. This composite set is a component of the DMSP-OLS... -
Average visible per percentage frequency of light detection - DMSP-OLS Nighttime Lights
This nighttime lights product known as avg_lights_x_pct is derived from the average visible band digital number (DN) of cloud-free light detections multiplied by the percent frequency of light... -
Stable lights - DMSP-OLS Nighttime Lights
