Producing global science products for the MODerate resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) in MODAPS [PDF]
IGARSS 2000. IEEE 2000 International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium. Taking the Pulse of the Planet: The Role of Remote Sensing in Managing the Environment. Proceedings (Cat. No.00CH37120), 2002 The MODerate resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) was launched on NASA's EOS-Terra spacecraft in December 1999. With 36 spectral bands covering the visible, near wave and short wave infrared, MODIS produces over 40 global science data products, including sea surface temperature, ocean color, cloud properties, vegetation indices land surface ...

Using Dome C for moderate resolution imaging spectroradiometer calibration stability and consistency [PDF]
Journal of Applied Remote Sensing, 2009 Currently, there are two nearly identical moderate resolution imaging spectroradiometer (MODIS) instruments operated in space: one on the Terra spacecraft launched in December 1999 and another on the Aqua spacecraft launched in May 2002. MODIS has 36 spectral bands with wavelengths covering from visible (VIS) to long-wave infrared (LWIR). Since launch,

Algorithms for Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer cloud-free image compositing [PDF]
Journal of Applied Remote Sensing, 2013 The presence of clouds is the biggest obstacle in the investigation of land cover, and many techniques have been developed to detect clouds. However, few indicators have been proposed for the detection of cloud-free conditions. To address this, we propose two indicators for use in compositing 8-day cloud-free images: the B 1/7 ratio is the ratio ...

Synoptic classification of Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer aerosols over Israel [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, 2009 The origins and variety of aerosols in Israel are strongly influenced by synoptic conditions as well as other variables. Days affected by a weak Persian trough system are characterized by coarse aerosols from North Africa, which contain mainly mineral dust aerosols, whereas days affected by the Red Sea trough with an eastern axis are characterized by ...
