Description
The Snow Masks used in the European Drought Observatory (EDO) are a collection of time-varying binary spatial layers (one for each 10-day period of the year) used to depict the location and extent of snow on the ground. The input data
for calculating the snow masks is the NASA VNP10A1 product (https://nsidc.org/data/vnp10a1/versions/1). Data values are 0: Snow-free, 1: Snow-covered.
