Download and Process GIMMS NDVI3g Data
Description
We provide a set of functions to retrieve information about GIMMS NDVI3g
files currently available online; download and re-arrange the bi-monthly
datasets according to creation time; import downloaded files from native
binary (ENVI) format directly into R based on the widely applied 'raster'
package; and calculate monthly value composites (e.g. maximum value
composites, MVC) from the bi-monthly input data.
