What is MODIS?• Moderate-Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer
• Launched in 1999 aboard the EOS AM (Terra); EOS PM (Aqua) followed in 2002
• Monitors 36 spectral bands between 0.4 m and 14.4 m
• Images entire Earth every 1-2 days at 1 km resolution
• X data products provided by NASA with full QA/QC

Accessing MODIS Data• Level 1 and Atmosphere Archive and Distribution
System (LAADS)
• Warehouse Inventory Search Tool (WIST) submits orders via EOS ClearingHouse (ECHO)
• Direct access via FTP
• HDF files can be manipulated with C, Fortran, Perl, MATLAB, IDL, Mathmatica and now ArcGIS

Next Steps• Develop principle for constraining
maximum evapotranspiration
• Develop principle for estimating net radiation on cloudy days
