MODIS
The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer aboard NASA's Terra and Aqua satellites, with a spatial resolution of about 1 kilometer, used for global fire monitoring and other Earth observation tasks.
Timeline (last 90 days)
The uGAP platform offers three data access methods: direct download; drawing a bounding box on a map for spatially clipped download; and filtering Sentinel, MODIS, and Landsat imagery by time window and cloud cover through an integrated search-and-archive function.
Among uGAP's 120 datasets, the vast majority come from international satellites such as Landsat, Sentinel, and MODIS, and there is as yet no African indigenous satellite data.
Fire monitoring over vast Arctic regions relies on satellite remote sensing, with commonly used data sources including MODIS (spatial resolution of about 1 km) and VIIRS (about 375 m) sensors.
This method generates soil moisture maps at 10-meter resolution, which represents a clear advantage over the one-kilometer resolution of earlier MODIS thermal sensors.
Computer vision-based fire detection uses models such as CNNs to automatically identify thermal anomalies in satellite imagery from NASA's MODIS and VIIRS sensors.
