An Extended VIIRS-like Artificial Nighttime Light Data Reconstruction (1986-2024). [PDF]

open access: yesSci Data
Abstract Artificial Night-Time Light (NTL) remote sensing is a vital proxy for quantifying the intensity and spatial distribution of human activities. Although the NPP-VIIRS sensor provides high-quality NTL observations, its temporal coverage, which begins in 2012, restricts long-term time-series studies that extend to earlier periods.
