Overview

The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) instrument operates on both the Terra and Aqua spacecraft. The instrument has a swath width of 2,330 km and covers the entire surface of the Earth within one or two days. The sensor measures 36 spectral bands between 0.405-14.385 µm and acquires data at three spatial resolutions: 250, 500, and 1,000 m.

MODIS Collection 6.1 (061) processing began in September 2017. The release incorporates improvements and changes to the Level-1B (L1B) products utilized as inputs for higher level products. MODIS Collection 6.1 products are available at Level 3 and 4 for land and cryosphere products. Each product type is combined into a single collection in the Planetary Computer. Additional information is provided on each collection's homepage.
