Every 10-days estimates are available at global scale in the spatial resolution of about 1 km covering the period from 1999 to June 2020 from SPOT/VEGETATION and PROBA-V data. LAI was defined by CEOS as half the developed area of the convex hull wrapping the green canopy elements per unit horizontal ground. This definition allows accounting for elements which are not flat such as needles or stems. LAI is strongly non linearly related to reflectance. Therefore, its estimation from remote sensing observations will be scale dependent over heterogeneous landscapes. When observing a canopy made of different layers of vegetation, it is therefore mandatory to consider all the green layers. This is particularly important for forest canopies where the understory may represent a very significant contribution to the total canopy LAI. The derived LAI corresponds therefore to the total green LAI, including the contribution of the green elements of the understory. The resulting GEOV1 LAI products are relatively consistent with the actual LAI for low LAI values and ‘non-forest’ surfaces; while for forests, particularly for needle leaf types, significant departures with the true LAI are expected. LAI products estimates are available every 10-days at global scale in the spatial resolution of about 1 km covering the period from 1999 to June 2020 from SPOT/VEGETATION and PROBA-V data. This product is first designed to fit the requirements of the Global Land component of Land Service of GMES-Copernicus. It can be also useful for all applications related to the environment monitoring. The product is provided in Near Real Time, and updated the next six periods. The products were generated by the land service of Copernicus, the Earth Observation programme of the European Commission. The research leading to the current version of the product has received funding from various European Commission Research and Technical Development programs. The algorithm was originally developed in the framework of the FP7/ImagineS (grant agreement no 311766) by INRA, HYGEOS and VITO. The product is based on PROBA-V 333m data ((c) ESA, BELSPO and distribution by VITO).

Within the Copernicus component, a portfolio of land monitoring activities has been delegated by the European Union to the European Environment Agency (EEA) and the DG Joint Research Centre of the European Commission. The Copernicus land monitoring products and services are made available on a principle of full, open and free access, as established by the Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) No 1159/2013 of 12 July 2013. Free, full and open access to the products and services of the Copernicus Land Monitoring Service is made on the conditions that: 1. When distributing or communicating Copernicus Land Monitoring Service products and services (data, software scripts, web services, user and methodological documentation and similar) to the public, users shall inform the public of the source of these products and services. 2. Where the Copernicus Land Monitoring Service products and services have been adapted or modified by the user, the user shall clearly state this. 3. Users shall make sure not to convey the impression to the public that the user's activities are officially endorsed by the European Union.

The calibrated reflectances are used to calculate instantaneous estimates of the products using a neural network trained with MODIS and CYCLOPES products, removing outliers as clouds and their shadows and atmospherically corrected (SMAC). In a second stage these instantaneous first guess of products are composited using an asymmetric period. The compositing is performing a temporal smooth and gap fill operation based on the land cover type (Evergreen Broadleaf Forest or not).
