Noise Characterization and Performance of MODIS Thermal Emissive Bands [PDF]
IEEE Transactions on Geoscience and Remote Sensing, 2016 The MODerate-resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) is a premier Earth observing sensor of the early 21st Century, flying on-board the Terra (T) and Aqua (A) spacecrafts. Both instruments far exceeded their 6 year design life and continue to operate satisfactorily for more than 15 and 13 years, respectively.
