AntAir: satellite-derived 1km daily Antarctic air temperatures since 2003-2016 (monthly means), links to GeoTIFFS

AntAir is a dataset of gridded air temperatures in 1km spatial and daily temporal resolution currently available for the years 2003-2016. AntAir was created by modelling daily air temperature from MODIS land surface temperature using machine learning algorithms. Data from 70 weather stations was use...

Description
Summary:AntAir is a dataset of gridded air temperatures in 1km spatial and daily temporal resolution currently available for the years 2003-2016. AntAir was created by modelling daily air temperature from MODIS land surface temperature using machine learning algorithms. Data from 70 weather stations was used as a reference. The dataset covers the entire continent of Antarctica in 1km spatial resolution for the period 2003 to 2016. Find the daily Antair dataset here: https://doi.pangaea.de/10.1594/PANGAEA.902166 This dataset contains monthly means of the daily resolution AntAir data. Each year consists of 12 raster layers (stacked in one multiband GeoTIFF) that represent the predicted air temperature for the respective month. The raster layers are distributed using the GeoTIFF format and the Antarctic Polar Stereographic projection (EPSG 3031). The unit of the values is degree Celsius * 10.
