What is the List of MODIS Products?

MODIS (Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer) products are data sets derived from observations made by the MODIS instrument aboard NASA's Terra and Aqua satellites. These products provide a wide range of information about various Earth system components, including land, ocean, atmosphere, and cryosphere. MODIS products are used for scientific research, environmental monitoring, natural resource management, and a variety of other applications. They include measurements such as land surface temperature, vegetation indices, ocean color, atmospheric properties, snow cover, and many others, contributing to a better understanding of Earth's systems and processes.

This table provides a comprehensive list of MODIS products with their respective abbreviations for easy reference.
