Abstract
Central Asia is the largest arid and semi-arid region in the Northern Hemisphere, and its ecological environment is extremely fragile and susceptible to the effects of global climate change. Maintaining the stability of the region's ecosystem is crucial to global economic and social development due to its unique geographic location. Vegetation serves as a significant indicator of the ecological environment, and the spatial and temporal distribution pattern, as well as the change trend of vegetation, are important indicators in evaluating the ecological status of the region. The Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) is a commonly used remote sensing index to study vegetation, which characterizes the spatio-temporal changes of vegetation. This dataset utilized MODIS13Q1 to generate long-term time series growing season mean NDVI data with a spatial resolution of 250m in Central Asia from 2001 to 2020. To obtain the 2020 growing season mean NDVI data with a higher spatial resolution of 30m, the Cubist algorithm based on rule segmentation regression was utilized to fuse the Landsat data and MODIS data. Meanwhile, this dataset carried out quality control of data products from three aspects: data source quality control, model training optimization, and model independent verification to ensure the accuracy and reliability of data. The generation of this dataset provides powerful data support for the analysis of vegetation dynamic change and spatial pattern in Central Asia.
