download_modis_vegetation_index

Downloads MODIS 16-day vegetation index products that intersect with the input geometry and time range. The workflow will download products at the chosen index and resolution. The products are available at a 16-day interval and pixel values are selected based on low clouds, low view angle, and highest index value. Vegetation index values range from (-2000 to 10000). For more information, see https://planetarycomputer.microsoft.com/dataset/modis-13Q1-061 and https://lpdaac.usgs.gov/products/mod13a1v061/ .
