This folder has 8 days cover datasets starting from 2001 January and actively maintained by Earth Observation Landscapes team, CSIRO.
Details of how fractional cover algorithm is applied can be seen in https://doi.org/10.4225/08/5848a3f19a7b3


File contains following data
1. Total cover datasets, which have total vegetation cover for Photosynthetic Vegetation(PV) and
   Non-Photosynthetic Vegetation (NPV). 
   Files are named like FC.8day.v310.MCD43A4.A20190813.aust.006.Tot.tif

2. Three bands datasets have BS, PV and NPV layers as RGB raster.
   Name like FC.8day.v310.MCD43A4.A20010720.aust.006.tif 

3. Total cover images in png format under folder png_images
   For ex. 20010202.png for total cover FC.8day.v310.MCD43A4.A20010202.aust.006.Tot.tif

File naming conventions for three bands(BS, PV, NPV) file
for ex. FC.8day.v310.MCD43A4.A20010415.aust.006.tif
	<Product type> FC
	<Frequency> 8day
	<version> v310
	<MODIS Product used> MCD43A4
	<Date starting with A> AYYYYMMDD
	<Country/continent> aust
        <Modis version> 006 
	<file format> tif
Same as above except for following single band total(PV+NPV) file
 For ex. FC.8day.v310.MCD43A4.A20010415.aust.006_Tot.tif
