Featured Vegetation Index Observation Method: MODIS
The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) instrument aboard NASA's Terra satellite can survey the entire Earth every one to two days. MODIS data can be used to create vegetation index products with up to 250-meter resolution.
The Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) will help ensure continuity of Earth observations after the upcoming retirement of the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS).
A new Combined Aqua and Terra MODIS Cloud Properties product is available at NASA's LAADS DAAC for both daily and monthly datasets.
GIBS will be expanding the data range and palette of the MODIS Aerosol Optical Depth products.
Join us to learn how to discover, subset, access and visualize both MODIS and VIIRS data products using a suite of user-friendly tools developed by NASA's ORNL DAAC.
