Just swap the regions with your own features or points and run!

MODIS MOD13Q1

To access an example script for extracting NDVI from MODIS MOD13Q1 imagery in Earth Engine, run:

use_example_ee_script(sensor = 'MODIS')
// Sample NDVI for IRG - MODIS MOD13Q1
// Example from irg package https://github.com/robitalec/irg
// Alec L. Robitaille

// Functions ===================================================================
function rescaleBands (im) {
  var viBands = im.select(['NDVI', 'EVI']).multiply(0.0001);
  var surfBands = im.select('sur_refl_b0.*').multiply(0.0001);
  var viewBands = im.select(['ViewZenith', 'SolarZenith', 'RelativeAzimuth']).multiply(0.01);

  return(im.addBands(viBands, null, true)
           .addBands(surfBands, null, true)
           .addBands(viewBands, null, true));
}

// Function to grab year from image and add it as a band
function addYear(img) {
  return(img.addBands(ee.Image(img.date().get('year')).rename('yr')));
}

// Function to sample an image in each region of supplied geometry
function sampleRegions (im) {
    return(im.reduceRegions(features, ee.Reducer.mean(), 250)
           .copyProperties(im));
}
