The program was carried out from January 8 to October 31 using AVHRR daytime and nighttime satellite images. MODIS satellite images were used beginning April, based on two passes.

Nighttime AVHRR images are taken between 1:00 and 6:00 local time. Daytime AVHRR images are taken between 16:30 and 19:00. MODIS images are taken between 10:50 and 14:00. The difference between pass 1 and pass 2 is approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes. The exact hour of the image taken is shown in the section with tabular information.
